Description

Optical loop device and the optical-electronic oscillator based on optical loop energy storage and filtering
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of optical-electronic oscillator, relate in particular to a kind of optical loop device and the optical-electronic oscillator based on optical loop energy storage and filtering.
Background technology
Oscillator is important core devices in signal emission or receiving system, and it has been widely used in the technology such as communication, radar, signal processing, radio astronomy, sensing, tolerance relating to the links that electromagnetic wave signal produces, receives and process.At ask for something in strict application demand, need oscillator can produce X-band, Ka wave band equifrequent is higher, and there is the signal of ultralow phase noise.
Conventional oscillator is quartz oscillator and atomic clock, and they can produce the signal of ultralow phase noise by the oscillation mode of high Q value, but its signal frequency only has several MHz to hundreds of MHz, if will produce the signal of higher frequency, just need to carry out frequency multiplication; But unfortunately, along with the increase of frequency multiplication number of times, the also increase at double of the phase noise of oscillator, frequency increases by 10 times usually, and phase noise will worsen 20dB; This also just means microwave and the millimeter wave frequency band at high frequencies such as X, Ka, and the phase noise of oscillator is by severe exacerbation.
In order to address the above problem, unremitting effort through those skilled in the art, a kind of novel high performance oscillator arises at the historic moment, be that optical-electronic oscillator (optoelectronic oscillator) is (referring to L. Maleki, " The optoelectronic oscillator ", Nature Photonics, 2011, 5 (24): 728-730.), optical-electronic oscillator is to using optical fiber or the optical resonantor energy-accumulating medium as high Q value, pass through electric light, electrooptical device forms the feedback loop that photoelectricity mixes, when adding microwave amplifier, while making the gain of whole system be greater than loss, under certain modeling mechanism, will vibrate to swash and penetrate the high-quality microwave/millimeter-wave signal that produces low phase noise, wherein, the energy-accumulating medium of high Q value is to reduce the core component of signal phase noise in optical-electronic oscillator, in prior art, the energy-accumulating medium that generally adopts optical fiber that length is longer or optical resonantor to form high Q value, but these two kinds are realized that all there is certain problem in means:
At first, for long optical fibers, have two problems: one is to bring spuious, signal quality deteriorates; Another is influenced by ambient temperature serious;
Generally, the length that increases optical fiber can effectively increase the energy storage time of optical-electronic oscillator, thereby reduce the phase noise of signal, but in order to obtain the signal that phase noise is extremely low, can only could realize by the length that significantly increases optical fiber, this just makes fiber lengths when obtaining low phase noise but reach kilometers, thereby the intrinsic longitudinal mode spacing that causes optical-electronic oscillator will be reduced to tens kHz magnitudes, due to the performance impact that is subject to microwave filter, microwave filter in the filter pass band bandwidth of high band in tens MHz magnitudes, therefore be difficult to realize single-mode oscillation, the starting of oscillation of limit mould will bring spuious, thereby make the quality of the signal of generation occur deteriorated, in order to address this problem, the researcher has proposed employing dicyclo or multiring structure, when guaranteeing low phase noise, widen longitudinal mode spacing, just can make the limit mould obtain certain inhibition, although this structure can solve spuious problem to a certain extent, but and can't overcome optical fiber problem influenced by ambient temperature, because during variation of ambient temperature, the effective refractive index of optical fiber also will change, the eigenmodes of vibration ring cavity will change like this, thereby cause the frequency of the microwave/millimeter wave signal of generation to be drifted about, especially when optical fiber is longer, any minor variations of ambient temperature, all can obviously appear suddenly in the drift of frequency.
In addition, concerning optical resonantor forms the optical-electronic oscillator of energy-accumulating medium of high Q value, want to produce the signal of low phase noise, just require optical resonantor to there is high Q value; This has extremely low roughness with regard to the sidewall that needs optical resonantor, usually will reach the level of nanometer scale; This has just proposed high requirement to the manufacture craft of optical resonantor, is very difficult to realize.Even and realized such technique, make the roughness of optical resonantor sidewall reach the nm magnitude, the phase noise of the microwave/millimeter wave signal produced is still higher, and the phase noise of this signal that optical-electronic oscillator produces based on optical resonantor of external report is than the high 20~30dB of the optical-electronic oscillator based on long optical fibers at present.

When this optical loop device being done to optical-electronic oscillator application of the present invention, its operation principle is the same.
Useful technique effect of the present invention has:
1) the stable output signal degree of having avoided using long optical fibers to cause is problem influenced by ambient temperature easily.
Adopt the optical-electronic oscillator (no matter being the situation of monocycle, dicyclo or many rings) of long optical fibers, in order to obtain the output signal of low phase noise, usually adopt the optical fiber of several kilometers; If its optical fiber effective length is 4km, for the output signal of X-band, when 0.1 ℃ of variation of ambient temperature, the frequency of the output signal 5.6kHz~8.4kHz that will drift about, this is by the frequency stability of severe exacerbation output signal.Because the present invention uses the optical loop energy storage, the actual fiber lengths 2m that only has an appointment, therefore during 0.1 ℃ of variation of ambient temperature, adopt the frequency of the optical-electronic oscillator output signal of the optical loop 2.8Hz~4.2Hz that will drift about, this is greatly improved with regard to the frequency stability that makes output signal.
2) the optical loop energy storage can effectively reduce the phase noise of output signal
Because the present invention has adopted the optical loop energy storage, although the fiber lengths of loop only has 2m, the phase noise of output signal has obtained good inhibition; As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5, with fiber lengths, only have the existing optical-electronic oscillator of 2m to compare, more than the phase noise of the optical-electronic oscillator output signal of employing optical loop (fiber lengths is 2m) has reduced 50dB.
3) the super narrow-band filtering of optical loop can effectively reduce the spuious of output signal
The optical loop adopted due to the present invention has the characteristic of super narrow-band filtering, and still can realize that at high bands such as X, Ka filter pass band is less than the super narrow-band filtering of 150kHz; The filter effect schematic diagram that Fig. 3 is optical loop of the present invention, as can be seen from the figure the centre frequency of filtering is about 10GHz, and pass band width is about 133kHz.When if the super narrow filtering characteristic of optical loop is inoperative, only have common microwave filter (its pass band width is generally tens MHz magnitudes) to carry out modeling, the phase noise curve of consequent microwave signal as shown in Figure 6, can be found out and have obvious limit mould (spuious) to exist; When the super narrow filtering characteristic of optical loop works, the phase noise curve of the microwave signal produced as shown in Figure 7, can see that the limit mould (spuious) of output signal has obtained good inhibition.
