A dual-layer
optical encryption fluorescent polymer waveguide chip based on optical
pulse code modulation technology belongs to the field of functional
photonic chip technology. It consists of a substrate layer, a buffer layer, a cladding layer, a bottom
waveguide layer, and a top
waveguide layer. The cladding layer is divided into three parts: a lower cladding layer, a middle cladding layer, and an upper cladding layer. The bottom waveguide is located within the middle cladding layer, and the top waveguide is located within the upper cladding layer. The bottom and top waveguides do not overlap in the
chip's top-
view plane. The waveguide layer material is obtained by
doping fluorescent small-molecule
oligomer chromophores into a
polymer material. This invention achieves
signal optical pulse coding by modulating the pump light
power intensity. By detecting changes in optical
transmission loss in the
fiber optic system, it determines whether
eavesdropping has occurred.
Eavesdropping is indicated by optical
transmission loss exceeding a threshold. False information is displayed in the bottom waveguide for disguise, while the modulated information is transmitted encrypted through the top waveguide, thus solving the problems of limited
controllability and insufficient security in traditional
encryption technologies.
