    摘要: This application discloses a quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifier and a preparation method therefor. Because positions of a plurality of localization etching holes on a pre-etching layer (203) are fixed, a position of a nanowire (204) that is from the bottom of the localization etching hole and extends along an axial direction of the localization etching hole is also fixed. In this way, a quantum dot is grown by using the nanowire (204) as a carrier, and a degree of freedom of the growth of the quantum dot is limited, so that the position of the quantum dot is fixed and the size is controllable. Because the position of the quantum dot is fixed and the size is controllable, it is avoided that quantum dots located at a same height in active sections of a plurality of nanowires (204) form a two-dimensional plane. In addition, relatively large fluctuation of alloy components caused by random sizes of the quantum dots can be effectively avoided, thereby reducing wavelength correlation of the amplifier, properly adjusting a width of a covered wave band, and reducing a noise figure.

    摘要: This application relates to the field of fiber optic communications, and discloses a polarization independent optical device. The polarization independent optical device includes an input/output preprocessing optical path and M add/drop optical paths. Any add/drop optical path may be configured to drop a first Q TE and a first P TE that meet a resonance condition of a microring included in the add/drop optical path, that is, each add/drop optical path may be configured to drop a desired optical signal. Any add/drop optical path may also be configured to transmit an input optical signal to the input/output preprocessing optical path, that is, each add/drop optical path may also be configured to add a desired optical signal. Therefore, when any of the M add/drop optical paths is configured to drop a desired optical signal, another add/drop optical path may be configured to add a desired optical signal. In other words, the polarization independent optical device provided by this application can simultaneously drop a desired optical signal and add a desired optical signal.

    摘要: This application discloses a wavelength calibration method, apparatus, and system. The wavelength calibration method is used to perform wavelength calibration for a microring filter, and specifically includes: selecting some wavelengths from a plurality of wavelengths, and performing the following operations on the microring filter for each of the some wavelengths, to obtain sets of calibrated voltages of the some wavelengths: (1) adjusting thermal tuning power of the plurality of microrings by using one set of voltages, and obtaining a plurality of sets of voltages that enable monitored optical power to have an extreme value, and (2) using the plurality of sets of voltages as a reference, adjusting the thermal tuning power of the plurality of microrings by using another set of voltages, and determining one of the sets of calibrated voltages from the plurality of sets of voltages, where the set of calibrated voltages enables the monitored optical power to converge; and then, obtaining, through calculation based on the sets of calibrated voltages of the some wavelengths, sets of calibrated voltages of other wavelengths in the plurality of wavelengths. In this method, voltage commissioning is performed only on some wavelengths, and one set of voltages with smaller values is selected from a plurality of sets of to-be-selected extreme voltages as calibrated voltages. This reduces power consumption of the microring filter. In addition, obtaining, through calculation, calibrated voltages corresponding to remaining wavelengths increases a calibration speed.

    摘要: An optical signal processing method and an optical component (20) are provided. The optical component (20) may implement two completely symmetric optical paths. Insertion losses of the two optical paths do not vary as an input polarization state changes, and the two optical paths have a same delay, thereby implementing polarization independence of the optical component (20). Further, two optical signals can be processed by using only one polarization-sensitive optical component (21). On one hand, costs of a user are reduced. On the other hand, the optical component (20) is always in presence of light. Therefore, a controller can control a status of the polarization-independent optical component (21).
