[0064] Drive the first light source module through an external power supply. The GaN-based semiconductor laser emits an optical signal with a wavelength of 400 - 500 nm to obtain the first-wavelength optical signal. Transmit the optical signal with a wavelength of 400 - 500 nm through the first optical waveguide. Adopt a low-loss optical waveguide structure to obtain the optical signal transmitted to the input end of the mode multiplexing module.

Receive the 400 - 500 nm optical signal with a unified polarization state through the mode multiplexing module. Adopt the dual-drive electrode Mach-Zehnder structure of the optical modulation module to obtain the initial modulated optical signal. If the bias voltage of the initial modulated optical signal is within the range of 0 - 5 V, apply the bias voltage through the Mach-Zehnder structure to obtain the modulated optical signal with a modulation bandwidth of 10 GHz. Intensity-modulate the modulated optical signal through the optical modulation module. Based on the electro-optic effect processing, obtain the dual-channel modulation signal. Acquire the dual-channel modulation signal.

Transmit the independent first-wavelength signal through the tapered optical waveguide. Adopt the arrayed waveguide grating structure to obtain the output signal with a channel spacing of 200 GHz. Perform temperature control processing on the output signal through a thermoelectric cooler. Adopt a control algorithm with a temperature control accuracy of ±0.1 °C to obtain the first-wavelength output signal with a stable wavelength.

[0065] Exemplarily, the first light source module is driven by an external power supply, and a semiconductor laser based on GaN emits an optical signal with a wavelength of 400 - 500 nm. Specifically, a 5V DC power supply is used for driving, and the output power of the laser is 10 mW to obtain the optical signal of the first wavelength. The optical signal with a wavelength of 400 - 500 nm is transmitted through the first optical waveguide. A low-loss optical waveguide structure is adopted, and the waveguide loss is 0.1 dB / cm to obtain the optical signal transmitted to the input end of the mode multiplexing module. The optical signal transmitted to the input end of the mode multiplexing module is acquired, and the TE-polarized optical signal with a wavelength of 400 - 500 nm is processed by a polarization beam splitting rotator with a rotation angle of 45° to obtain the optical signal converted to a unified polarization state. The mode multiplexing module receives the optical signal with a wavelength of 400 - 500 nm in the unified polarization state, and a dual-drive electrode Mach-Zehnder structure of the optical modulation module with an electrode spacing of 10 μm is adopted to obtain the initial modulated optical signal. If the bias voltage of the initial modulated optical signal is within the range of 0 - 5V, then a bias voltage is applied through the Mach-Zehnder structure, and the bias voltage value is 3V to obtain the modulated optical signal with a modulation bandwidth of 10 GHz. The optical modulation module performs intensity modulation on the modulated optical signal, and based on the electro-optic effect, the modulation depth is 90% to obtain the dual-channel modulation signal. The dual-channel modulation signal is acquired, and the optical signal with a wavelength of 400 - 500 nm is separated by a demultiplexer of the dual-channel output module. The center wavelength of the demultiplexer is 450 nm to obtain the independent first wavelength signal. The independent first wavelength signal is transmitted through a tapered optical waveguide. An arrayed waveguide grating structure is adopted with a grating period of 1.5 μm to obtain the output signal with a channel spacing of 200 GHz. The output signal is temperature-controlled by a thermoelectric cooler, and a control algorithm with a temperature control accuracy of ±0.1°C is adopted, and the set temperature is 25°C to obtain the first wavelength output signal with a stable wavelength.

[0066] The second light source module emits an optical signal of the second wavelength through an external power supply and transmits it to the other input end of the mode multiplexing module through the second optical waveguide.

[0067] Power the second light source module through an external power supply to activate the erbium-doped GaN optical amplifier and obtain excited erbium ions. Input the pump light of the first light source module into the erbium-doped GaN optical amplifier to excite the erbium ions to transition to a higher energy level and obtain an optical signal with a wavelength of 1.5 μm. Amplify the optical signal with a wavelength of 1.5 μm through the optical resonator inside the second light source module to determine a stable optical signal output. Obtain the amplified optical signal with a wavelength of 1.5 μm and transmit it to the second optical waveguide to obtain the optical signal stream of the mode multiplexing module. Optimize the transmission efficiency of the optical signal according to the refractive index and geometric structure of the second optical waveguide, and determine that the loss of the optical signal is lower than the preset threshold. If the loss of the optical signal is lower than the preset threshold, then transmit the optical signal with a wavelength of 1.5 μm to the input end of the mode multiplexing module through the second optical waveguide to obtain a stable input signal. Use the polarization beam splitting rotator of the mode multiplexing module to receive the optical signal with a wavelength of 1.5 μm transmitted by the second optical waveguide and determine the polarization state compatibility with the first light source signal. Combine the optical signal with a wavelength of 1.5 μm with the optical signal with a wavelength of 400 - 500 nm of the first light source through the mode multiplexing module to obtain a composite optical signal of a single optical waveguide. Obtain the composite optical signal and transmit it to the optical modulation module to determine that the intensity and phase of the composite optical signal meet the modulation requirements.

[0068] Exemplarily, the external power supply drives the erbium-doped GaN optical amplifier with a DC voltage of 3.5 V to cause population inversion of erbium ions at the 4F3 / 2 energy level. The first light source module outputs 450 nm pump light, which is coupled to the active region of the erbium-doped GaN through a focusing lens, and the pump power density reaches 50 mW / μm 2 , exciting erbium ions to generate 1.53 μm spontaneous emission light. The optical resonator uses a distributed Bragg reflector (reflectivity > 99.8%) and a semi-transmissive output mirror (transmittance 30%), and filters the longitudinal mode in the 1.5 μm band through the Fabry-Perot interference effect, and the linewidth is compressed to less than 0.1 nm. The amplified optical signal is coupled to the second optical waveguide through a tapered waveguide (cone angle 8°), the waveguide cross-section size is 1.5 μm × 0.8 μm, and the TE00 mode transmission loss is calculated to be 0.2 dB / cm by the finite element method. The wavelength scanning method is used to measure the optical power attenuation curve, and the insertion loss measured at 1.5 μm is 1.2 dB, which is lower than the 1.5 dB threshold. The polarization beam splitting rotator is based on a sub-wavelength grating structure (period 300 nm, duty cycle 0.6), which converts the input TM mode to the TE mode, and the extinction ratio reaches 25 dB. The mode multiplexing module uses a multimode interference coupler (length 75 μm, width 4 μm), and the two optical signals form a phase difference of π / 2 in the interference region, and the power uniformity error at the output end is < 5%. The composite optical signal enters the Mach-Zehnder modulator, and when a driving voltage of 3 Vpp is applied, the measured modulation depth is 98% and the 3 dB bandwidth is 12 GHz.

[0069] S103. Combine the optical signal of the first wavelength and the optical signal of the second wavelength into a composite optical signal through the mode multiplexing module. Specifically, the mode multiplexing module can be used to combine the optical signals of the first wavelength and the second wavelength into a single optical waveguide output through an asymmetric directional coupler to obtain a composite optical signal.

[0070] Obtain the optical signal of the first wavelength output by the first light source module, and transmit it through the first optical waveguide to the first input end of the asymmetric directional coupler to obtain the waveguide transmission data of the optical signal of the first wavelength. Obtain the optical signal of the second wavelength output by the second light source module, and transmit it through the second optical waveguide to the second input end of the asymmetric directional coupler to obtain the waveguide transmission data of the optical signal of the second wavelength. Calculate the coupling coefficient of the optical signal of the first wavelength and the optical signal of the second wavelength according to the waveguide structure parameters of the asymmetric directional coupler, and determine the initial composite optical signal of mode superposition. Adjust the phase matching condition of the optical signal of the first wavelength and the optical signal of the second wavelength through the waveguide length and refractive index distribution of the asymmetric directional coupler to obtain an optimized composite optical signal. If the power distribution of the composite optical signal meets the preset threshold, output the composite optical signal through a single optical waveguide to obtain stable multiplexed optical signal data. Modulate the intensity of the multiplexed optical signal according to the electro-optic effect parameters of the optical modulation module to obtain the preliminary data of the dual-channel modulation signal. Adjust the polarization state of the dual-channel modulation signal through the polarization modulation function of the optical modulation module to obtain a modulation signal that conforms to the communication protocol. Obtain the demultiplexer parameters of the dual-channel output module, separate the modulated composite optical signal into independent optical signals of the first wavelength and the second wavelength, and determine the separated signal data. Optimize the geometric parameters of the tapered optical waveguide to transmit the separated optical signals of the first wavelength and the second wavelength to the external optical communication system to obtain the final communication output signal.

[0071] Exemplarily, the first light source module uses a GaN-based semiconductor laser to output a visible light signal with a wavelength of 450 nm, which is transmitted to the first input end of the asymmetric directional coupler through a first optical waveguide with a width of 1.5 μm, and the transmission loss of the optical waveguide is controlled within 0.2 dB / cm. The second light source module uses an erbium-doped GaN optical amplifier to output a light signal with a wavelength of 1.5 μm after receiving 450 nm pump light, which is transmitted to the second input end of the asymmetric directional coupler through a second optical waveguide with a width of 2 μm, and the group refractive index of the waveguide is set to 3.4. The waveguide spacing of the asymmetric directional coupler is designed to be 0.8 μm, and the coupling coefficient of the TE mode is calculated to be 0.25 dB / μm by the finite element method, and the initial composite optical signal power ratio after mode superposition is determined to be 1:1. By adjusting the waveguide length of the asymmetric directional coupler to 50 μm and optimizing the refractive index distribution to make Δn = 0.01, the phase matching of the dual-wavelength signal is achieved, and the crosstalk of the composite optical signal is reduced to below -30 dB. An optical detector is used to monitor the power of the composite optical signal. When the main mode power reaches 5 mW and the side mode suppression ratio is greater than 20 dB, a single optical waveguide output is triggered. The optical modulation module loads a 10 Gbps NRZ electrical signal and uses the electro-optic coefficient r33 = 30 pm / V of the lithium niobate waveguide to perform intensity modulation on the composite optical signal, and the modulation depth reaches 90%. The polarization angle of the dual-channel modulation signal is adjusted to 45° by integrating a polarization controller to meet the polarization multiplexing requirements of coherent communication. The demultiplexer uses an arrayed waveguide grating structure with a channel spacing of 100 nm, and the isolation after separating the 1.5 μm and 450 nm signals is better than 40 dB. The input end width of the tapered optical waveguide gradually changes from 3 μm to 1 μm, and the output end is aligned with the single-mode fiber array, and the coupling efficiency is increased to more than 95%.

[0072] S104.

[0073] Obtain the first-wavelength optical signal emitted by the first light source module and the second-wavelength optical signal emitted by the second light source module, and transmit them through the first optical waveguide and the second optical waveguide to the input end of the mode multiplexing module to obtain the input signal of the multiplexing module. By using the mode multiplexing technology in the mode multiplexing module, combine the first-wavelength optical signal and the second-wavelength optical signal into a single optical waveguide output to obtain a composite optical signal.

An analog-to-digital converter samples the output current signals of the photodetector at a sampling frequency of 1 MHz to obtain the digital voltage values of the first wavelength signal and the second wavelength signal, which are 2.5 V and 3.2 V respectively. The optical power value is calculated based on the digital voltage value, using the formula P = k·V 2, where k is the optoelectronic conversion coefficient. The calculated power value of the first wavelength signal is 6.25 mW, and the power value of the second wavelength signal is 10.24 mW. By comparing the power values of the two signals, the power difference is calculated to be 3.99 mW, obtaining the power difference data. If the power difference data exceeds the preset threshold of 2 mW, the power balance algorithm is triggered, and the PID control algorithm is used to generate a modulator drive signal adjustment instruction. For example, the drive voltage of the first wavelength signal is increased by 0.5 V. According to the adjustment instruction, the interference arm drive signal of the dual-channel Mach-Zehnder modulator in the optical modulation module is modified, and the modulation intensity of the first wavelength signal is increased by 20%, obtaining an updated composite optical signal. The updated composite optical signal is demultiplexed by the dual-channel output module, and the demultiplexer is used to separate the composite optical signal into a new first wavelength signal and a second wavelength signal, which are output to the photodetector. The photodetector is used to detect the new first wavelength signal and the second wavelength signal again, converting them into new electrical signals, and obtaining the updated digital voltage values, which are 3.0 V and 3.2 V respectively.

For example, the power difference value is 2 mW, determining the power difference value. If the power difference value exceeds a preset threshold, for example, the preset threshold is 1 mW, an adjustment signal is generated by a feedback control module, and an initial drive signal correction parameter is obtained. For example, the adjustment voltage is 0.5 V. According to the initial drive signal correction parameter, the interference arm voltages of a dual-channel Mach-Zehnder modulator in an optical modulation module are adjusted. For example, the first interference arm voltage is adjusted from 2 V to 2.5 V, obtaining a preliminary modulation signal. The preliminary modulation signal is output to the dual-channel output module through the optical modulation module, and the separated first wavelength and second wavelength signal powers are acquired. For example, the power of the first wavelength signal is 9.8 mW and the power of the second wavelength signal is 9.2 mW, determining that the new power difference is 0.6 mW. If the new power difference still exceeds the preset threshold, the drive signal correction parameter is iteratively updated by the feedback control module. For example, the adjustment voltage is optimized from 0.5 V to 0.3 V, determining the optimized drive signal parameter. According to the optimized drive signal parameter, the bias voltage of a quantum well structure of an electro-absorption modulator array in the optical modulation module is adjusted. For example, the first quantum well bias voltage is adjusted from 1 V to 1.3 V, obtaining an optimized dual-channel modulation signal. The optimized dual-channel modulation signal is separated by a demultiplexer of the dual-channel output module, and the final first wavelength signal and second wavelength signal power data are acquired. For example, the power of the first wavelength signal is 10 mW and the power of the second wavelength signal is 9.9 mW, determining the power balance state.
