Optical device converting a coherent optical signal to incoherent signal
摘要:
An optical-optical device (20) comprising:

an input (23) for a coherent optical signal (1000) carrying a set of digital data;
an active waveguide (21) optically connected to the said input (23) for the propagation of the said coherent optical signal (1000), the said active waveguide (21) having a first (211) and a second (212) end and being capable of generating highly incoherent light;
a pump source for pumping the said active waveguide (21) and obtaining a predetermined gain; and
an output (24), optically connected to the said second end (212) of the said active waveguide (21), for the exclusive output of at least part of the said highly incoherent light;
in which the said coherent optical signal (1000) has a power and a wavelength selected in such a way that the said set of digital data which it carries is transferred to the said highly incoherent light during its propagation in the said active waveguide (21).
