Description
One, technical field
The invention belongs to the integrated optics technique field, relate to a kind of waveguide type optical filter that is used for optical communication system, optical computer system and photon/optoelectronic integrated circuit, specifically a kind of rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity type light filter.
Two, background technology
Optical filter is the base components of optical communication system, optical computer system and photon/optoelectronic integrated circuit, does not have functions such as the monitoring of interruption in order to realize wavelength-division multiplex/demultiplexing, light top and bottom path, light signal.Optical filter mainly contains kinds such as grating type, interfere type, waveguide array grating type, optical fiber melting cone type and waveguide micro annular resonant cavity type.The grating type light filter wavelength scope of application is narrower, interfere type optical filter filtering channel number is few, and membraneous material moisture-sensitive and change its stability, waveguide array grating type optical filter is to temperature variation and polarization of incident light attitude sensitivity, and optical fiber melting cone type optical filter channel isolation is poor.More than four kinds of optical filters be discrete component, be not easy to realize that with other photonic device monolithic is integrated.The waveguide micro annular resonant cavity type light filter has that volume is little, the quality factor advantages of higher, and is easily integrated with photonic device realization monolithics such as waveguide type modulator/switch, laser instrument, detectors.At present, the waveguide micro annular resonant cavity type light filter mainly adopts circular little ring structure, and the shortcoming of this structure is: 1, the difficulty of processing of circular little ring is big, and brings scattering loss easily; The interaction of 2, circular little ring and input/go out passage is apart from weak point, and the spacing of thereby little ring and input/go out passage is little, further increases difficulty of processing, and the device yields is low; 3, the free spectral range of optical filter is little, is difficult for being applied in the secret letter wavelength division multiplexed optical network.
Three, summary of the invention
In order to overcome the deficiency of existing waveguide micro annular resonant cavity type light filter, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity type light filter, this optical filter compact conformation, the processing technology difficulty is little, and free spectral range is big.
The objective of the invention is to be achieved through the following technical solutions:
A kind of rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity type light filter is characterized in that: it comprises highway and rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity, and described rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity is joined end to end by four right-angle turning devices and constitutes; Introduce the multimode waveguide that is cut into 45 degree angles on the angle of right-angle turning device; Highway is positioned at the side of rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity, and the center section of highway and rectangular, micro annular constitute directional coupler.
Among the present invention, highway can be one, also can have two, only with a common-use tunnel, forms notch filter.When adopting two highways, left surface at rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity is provided with highway, right flank at rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity also is provided with highway, and the center section of two highways constitutes left side directional coupler and right side directional coupler with rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity respectively.
When adopting two highways, the termination of left side highway is respectively input channel 1a and put-through channel 1b; The termination of right side highway is respectively down paths 2a and last paths 2b.
According to different needs, rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity of the present invention can be that one dimension or two dimension series connection form higher order filter.
Rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity type light filter of the present invention is made up of rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity and highway.Wherein rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity is joined end to end by four right-angle turning devices and constitutes, highway is in the both sides of rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity, center section and rectangular, micro annular constitute two directional couplers, and all the other four ends are input channel, last paths, following paths and put-through channel.Introduce the multimode waveguides be cut into 45 degree angles on the angle of right-angle turning device, according to time domain coupled mode theory, but resonance wavelength no reflection events and radiationless be coupled to output waveguide from input waveguide realizes low-loss right-angle turning device.Multiple wavelength optical signal by the input channel input partly is coupled in the rectangular, micro annular resonant cavity through first directional coupler light field, and along the ring transmission, partly be coupled to output channel once more through second directional coupler light field, all the other light fields continue transmission along ring, are back to first directional coupler.The transmission and so forth of light letter.If light field and the input light field of this wavelength the phase differential that the odd-multiple of π arranged of certain wavelength signals after one week of ring transmission (many weeks), according to the interference of light principle, then both destructive interferences, by law of conservation of energy, this wavelength light field constructive interference of second directional coupler, therefore this wavelength is realized filter function from paths output down.Similarly, the wavelength light signal of constructive interference destructive interference in second directional coupler in a directional coupler, so this wavelength optical signals put-through channel output become straight-through light signal.
Compared with prior art, advantage of the present invention is: 1, compact conformation; Do not have curved waveguide, difficulty of processing is little, the yields height; 2, the mutual work district separation of directional coupler is long, increases distance between the two, further reduces difficulty of processing; 3, because right-angle turning device and rectangular, micro annular all have the frequency-selecting function, therefore free frequency spectrum encloses greatly, can be applicable in the secret letter wavelength division multiplexed optical network.
The mutual work district separation of directional coupler is long among the present invention, can reach 0.5～0.8 μ m, and the mutual work district separation of directional coupler is about 0.2 μ m in original optical filter, thereby difficulty of processing of the present invention is little.And free frequency spectrum of the present invention encloses greatly, can reach about 60nm, and original optical filter is at 1～10nm.Application of the present invention is wide.
