Fig. 1 is the embodiment of the present invention three value light multiplier schematic diagram.
Fig. 2 is that drive current and the SOA nonlinear polarization rotation that the embodiment of the present invention is set concerns schematic diagram.
Embodiment
With reference to Fig. 1-2, embodiments of the invention are described.
For above-mentioned purpose, feature and advantage can be become apparent more, the present invention is further detailed explanation below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.
Table 1 is the corresponding relation of Trinary logic multiplier input and output light signal three value code values
First via light signal 0 0 0 -1 -1 -1 +1 +1 +1
The second road light signal 0 -1 +1 0 -1 +1 0 -1 +1
Output 0 0 0 0 +1 -1 0 -1 +1
As shown in table 1, the Trinary logic multiplier that the embodiment of the present invention proposes will adopt theoretical three values that mean of balanced ternary, and balanced ternary is that numeral is-1,0 ,+1 three-shift.The orhtogonal linear polarizaiton light of usining is counted the carrier of unit as balanced ternary, and stipulates that one of them linear polarization is numeral 0 for numeral+1, another linear polarization vertical with it for numeral-1, unglazed state.
The computation rule of Trinary logic multiplier is as follows:
If 1 a road light signal numeral is arranged is 0, be output as 0.
If 2 have a road light signal numeral for+1, output is identical with another road light signal numeral.
If 3 two ways of optical signals numerals are all-1, the output optical signal numeral is+1.
Fig. 1 is a kind of three value light multipliers of based semiconductor image intensifer nonlinear polarization rotation, comprises polarization beam apparatus 101, the first photodetector 102, the second photodetector 103, the first current amplification circuit 104, the second current amplification circuit 105, the first Polarization Controller 108, semiconductor optical amplifier 107.Polarization beam apparatus 101 will participate in two mutually perpendicular linear polarization of the first via light signal of multiplying to be separated, then respectively by the first photodetector 102, the second photodetector 103, light signal is converted to electric signal and via the first current amplification circuit 104, the second current amplification circuit 105, is enlarged into the drive current of setting, then be linked into semiconductor optical amplifier 107 current input terminals; The the second road light signal that participates in multiplying is input to the light input end of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 by the first Polarization Controller 108; In semiconductor optical amplifier 107, the second road light signal, under the drive current of first via light signal conversion drives, completes the operation of polarization rotation, realizes multiplying.
Between the first current amplification circuit 104, the second current amplification circuit 105 output terminals and semiconductor optical amplifier 107 current input terminals, comprise filtering circuit 106, for current filtering.
At second Polarization Controller 109 of the output terminal of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 configuration, making product is+1,0 ,-1 o'clock, and corresponding polarization state is respectively+1 state, unglazed state and-1 state.
The nonlinear polarization rotation characteristic of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 is mainly determined by input optical power and the drive current of semiconductor optical amplifier 107, after input optical power was determined, the non-linear revolving property of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 was mainly determined by the drive current of semiconductor optical amplifier 107.When the drive current of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 was 0, input optical signal can't pass through semiconductor optical amplifier 107; When the drive current of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 was low, the input optical signal linear polarization did not change after by semiconductor optical amplifier 107; When the drive current of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 was higher, the input optical signal linear polarization was by the rear half-twist of semiconductor optical amplifier 107, as shown in Figure 2.The relation of above semiconductor optical amplifier 107 nonlinear polarization rotations and drive current is existing be experimental results demonstrate.
The scheme that realizes three value multipliers is: utilize the characteristic of the nonlinear polarization rotation of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 by the drive current decision.When first via light signal unglazed (0), the drive current of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 is that 0, the second road light signal can't pass through semiconductor optical amplifier 107, is output as 0; When first via light signal was+1 state, the drive current of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 was lower, and the second road optical signal line polarization state does not change after by semiconductor optical amplifier 107; When first via light signal was-1 state, the drive current of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 was higher, and the second road light signal is by the rear linear polarization half-twist of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 (+1 becomes-1 ,-1 becomes+1, and 0 is constant).
Due to the different driving electric current, cause the gain difference of 107 pairs of light of semiconductor optical amplifier, the Output optical power amplitude there will be larger fluctuation.In order to solve the unsettled problem of output power, can consider that semiconductor optical amplifier 107 back in Fig. 1 increase the erbium-doped optical fiber amplifier EDFA of a constant power output, making Output optical power is steady state value.
Three value multiplier arithmetic speeds based on the rotation of the high speed polarization of SOA mainly are limited by the polarization speed of rotation of semiconductor optical amplifier 107, the detection rate of photodetector and the speed of current driving circuit; At present, the polarization speed of rotation of semiconductor optical amplifier 107 can reach the fs magnitude, and the detection rate of photodetector can reach the ps magnitude, and the speed of current driving circuit also can reach the ps magnitude; Therefore, the computing velocity of this three values multiplier system can be higher than 1Gb/s; And under this arithmetic speed, the quality of output signal is comparatively desirable.
