    摘要: An apparatus and a method for modulating the optical intensity, with the noises suppressed by using a linear optical modulator, are disclosed, so that the characteristics of signals transmitted from an optical communication system can be improved, and that the resolution of the measured physical quantities can be improved in an optical measuring instrument. The method is carried out in the following manner. That is, the magnitude of frequency is measured by utilizing pilot signals and electrical signals to transfer negatively fed-back signals to an optical intensity modulator. The phase is delayed by generating pilot signals so as to suppress an amplitude noise from the pilot signal caused by nonlinear modulation at the optical intensity modulator. A linear modulation is carried out on the phase-delayed signals and on optical signals from an external source to provide a linear component. The bias voltage is adjusted in accordance with the negatively fed-back signals, and an optical intensity modulation is carried out on the linearly modulated signals and on the added signals, the added signals having been formed by combining the data signals and the pilot signals.

    摘要: An apparatus for receiving optical signals in DQPSK and method of controlling a phase offset in receiving optical signals for DQPSK is provided. An original optical signal modulated in DQPSK is received. The original optical signal is delayed by one bit to make a delay optical signal such that an interference on the original optical signal and the delay optical signal is performed. A control signal is generated by use of an interference result between the original optical signal and the delay optical signal. A phase offset for the interference between the original optical signal and the delay optical signal is controlled by use of the generated control signal. In receiving optical signals, the phase offset between the delay optical signal and the original optical signal is precisely controlled, thereby optimizing the transfer characteristics of an optical delay interferometer.

    摘要: A vertical modulator with a dual mode distributed Bragg reflection (DBR), includes a pair of integrated elements using different wavelengths to provide functions of logical operation, data switching and wavelength conversion. The optical device includes a first optical structure operating at a first wavelength (.lambda..sub.1) and a second optical structure operating at a second wavelength (.lambda..sub.2). The first and second optical structures are formed over a semiconductor substrate. The first optical structure, which operates at the first wavelength (.lambda..sub.1), transmits its data to the second optical structure so that data corresponding to the second wavelength (.lambda..sub.2) can be output. Since the wavelength of input light is different from the wavelength of output light, the optical device serves as a modulator which performs a logic operation and switching function while carrying out wavelength conversion.

    摘要: For a multiple transmission communication system, how to individually isolate the transmitted lights and then to distribute to the terminals has been primary concerns to be solved. In the photodetector structure, an absorption layer may be configured as either multiple quantum well structures corresponding to operational wavelengths, or filter-based structure, allowing to select wavelengths in a 1:2:4:8 ratio as an absorptance for each wavelength. In case of using such four-fold lights, the determination as to which wavelength among four-fold wavelengths can be made based upon the total amounts of the current flow in such a photodetector. The photodetector employing such schemes is provided from the present invention.

    摘要: An improved parallel optical logic operator provides a path for light to pass through substrates in which a light source and an optical logic device are arranged. An optical logic device operates by transmission of light forwarded to a predetermined direction. This increases integration efficiency of the system by eliminating optical parts for changing the light path. A unit chip includes a laser array for generating a predetermined light in accordance with an electrical signal for a logic process, a laser array substrate on which via holes are formed for passing light, a microlens array for converting the light beam emitted from each laser device of the laser array into a parallel light beam for passing through the via hole, and an optical logic circuit array formed with a combination of an S-SEED which performs a logic function by transmission of the light signal through an optical window in S-SEED. A plurality of unit chips are laminated so that the light emitted from the laser device of one of the unit chips passes through an optical logic circuit of a corresponding unit chip and can be made incident on the optical logic circuit in the next unit chip through a via hole.
