  Title Multichannel high-bandwidth coupling of ultradense silicon photonic waveguide array to standard-pitch fiber array Type Journal Article
  Year (down) 2011 Publication J. Lightwave Technol. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 29 Issue 4 Pages 475-482  
  Keywords optical waveguides, from chiralphotonics  
  Abstract A multichannel tapered coupler interfacing standard 250-μm-pitch low-numerical-aperture (NA) polarization-maintaining fiber arrays with ultradense 20- μm-pitch high-NA silicon waveguides is designed and fabricated. The coupler is based on an array of 12 dual-core glass waveguides on 250-μ m pitch that are tapered to a 20- μm pitch, simultaneously providing both pitch and spot-size conversion. At the wide end, the inner core matches the NA and mode profile of standard single-mode fiber. When drawn and tapered, the inner core “vanishes” and the outer core, surrounded by the clad, matches the NA and mode profile of the on-chip photonic waveguide. Ultradense high-efficiency coupling to an array of Si photonic waveguides is demonstrated using a 12-channel polarization-maintaining-fiber pigtailed tapered coupler. Coupling to Si waveguides is facilitated using SiON spot-size converters integrated into the Si photonic IC to provide 2-3-μm mode field diameters compatible with the tapered coupler. The tapered coupler achieves <; 1 dB coupling losses to photonic waveguides. Furthermore, eight-channel coupling is shown with less than -35 dB crosstalk between channels. Finally, a 640-Gb/s wavelength-division-multiplexing signal is coupled into four waveguides occupying 80 μm of chip edge, providing 160-Gb/s per-channel bandwidths.

  Title Chiral diffraction gratings in twisted microstructured fibers Type Journal Article
  Year (down) 2010 Publication Optics Letters Abbreviated Journal Opt. Lett.  
  Volume 35 Issue 3 Pages 342-344  
  Keywords chiral diffracion gratings, optical fiber gratings, from chiralphotonics  
  Abstract We observed dips in transmission spectra of uniformly twisted pure-silica microstructured fibers. The spectral positions of the dips and their insensitivity to the surrounding medium are consistent with Bragg diffraction from the helical structure. The reproducibility of the variation of the dip wavelength with temperature up to 1000°C makes the chiral diffraction grating suitable for high-temperature sensing.

  Volume Issue Pages 1-3  
  Keywords InP balanced detector, waveguide grating, polarization splitter, from chiralphotonics  
  Abstract We propose and demonstrate a novel four-channel monolithic polarization-diversity dual-quadrature coherent receiver with balanced detection in InP. It uses an interleave-chirped arrayed waveguide grating that acts simultaneously as a demultiplexer, 90° hybrid, and polarization splitter.

  Title High radiation sensitivity of chiral long period gratings Type Journal Article
  Year (down) 2010 Publication IEEE Trans. Nucl. Sci. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 57 Issue 5 Pages 2915 - 2922  
  Keywords chiral fiber gratings, chiral gratings, chiral LPG, from chiralphotonics  
  Abstract The radiation sensitivity of chiral long period gratings was investigated for the first time. After a Co-60 gamma dose of 100 kGy they show radiation-induced changes of their transmission dip wavelength of up to 10 nm, which is 100 to 1000 times higher than the radiation-induced wavelength shift of different fiber Bragg grating types. They can therefore be used as radiation sensors down to doses of 10 Gy or even below, but not for accurate dose measurements since the size of the wavelength shift after a certain dose still depends on the radiation dose rate. Chiral gratings made of eight single mode fiber types with differences of their radiation-induced attenuation of several orders of magnitude were investigated in order to look for a correlation between dip wavelength shift and fiber attenuation. However, the dip wavelength curves do not show exactly the same order as the fiber attenuation curves. A theory that can exactly predict all properties of the chiral gratings might enable us to specify from our results an optimized fiber for the production of gratings that can also be used for radiation dosimetry.
