Abstract

We report an integrated all-optical radio frequency spectrum analyzer based on a ~4cm long doped silica glass waveguide, with a bandwidth greater than 2.5 THz. We use this device to characterize the intensity power spectrum of ultrahigh repetition rate mode-locked lasers at repetition rates up to 400 GHz, and observe dynamic noise related behavior not observable with other techniques.

Fig. 1 General schematic of the nonlinear RF spectrum analyzer. The pulsed signal under test is combined with a CW laser and they interact in a nonlinear medium, in this case a 4cm-long doped silica-glass spiral waveguide. The signal after the nonlinear interaction is detected using a standard optical spectrum analyzer (OSA).

Fig. 2 Experimental setup for measuring the frequency response bandwidth of the all-optical RF spectrum analyzer. Four polarization controllers ensure the same polarization (TM) for all the three CW signals coupled into the doped silica glass waveguide. The use of a band-pass filter was necessary to filter out the noise generated by one of the two amplifiers. The overall power at the waveguide input was constantly monitored by a power meter while the optical spectra were recorded by an OSA.

Fig. 3 Bandwidth measurement of our RF spectrum analyzer. a) Power spectral density for λ1↔λ2 = 20nm. In the inset we zoom on the idler peak. b) Normalized idler peak power as a function of the frequency detuning between signal 1 and 2. The green circle indicates that for a detuning exceeding 2.5 THz spurious nonlinear components start being visible.

Fig. 4 Typical RF spectrum PS(ω) of a non-ideal mode-locked laser source affected by amplitude noise and time jitter. All the standard parameters evaluated from the RF spectrum, e.g. transform-limited duration of the optical pulse (tp), repetition rate of the source (1/T), reciprocal of the cavity round trip time (1/T'), noise band of random fluctuations in the pulse train (1/tBN), and the reciprocal of the duration of such a fluctuations (1/tN), are also indicated.

Fig. 5 Experimental setup for measuring the RF spectrum of the modelocked lasers. The source under investigation is a mode-locked filter-driven four-wave mixing laser (grey inset with dashed contours). A CW laser source was first amplified and filtered then properly polarized (TM) before being sent into a 50:50 fiber coupler (top arm). On the second arm (bottom) a mode-locked laser generated a train of optical pulses that served as the signal under test. The signal was TM-polarized before being coupled into the second arm of the fiber coupler. The two outputs of the fiber coupler were directed to the 4cm-long doped silica glass waveguide and a power meter, respectively. Finally, the optical spectrum at the output of the waveguide was recorded by an OSA.

Fig. 6 Experimental RF spectra as seen from the optical spectra of both lasers - 200 GHz (bottom) and 400 GHz (top) near the probe frequency. The inset is a zoom of the first RF component for the signal at 200 GHz. The magenta arrow (color online) in the inset points at the typical feature related to the cavity length mismatch noise. The same feature is seen in the second components of the RF spectrum at 200 GHz and the first component of the signal at 400 GHz.
