Description

Technical Field

Background
In optical communication, optical signals need to be transmitted and received by optical fibers, and laying of long-distance optical fibers is a huge project. Generally, the same transmission distance requires two different optical fibers to transmit and receive optical signals, respectively. Despite the great amount of multiplexing research to increase the channel capacity of optical fiber to increase the utilization of optical fiber resources, it is far from keeping up with the huge demand of optical fiber resources for optical communication development.
The single-fiber bidirectional optical module can realize the receiving and transmitting of optical signals only by using one optical fiber, and half of optical fiber resources are saved. The traditional single-fiber bidirectional optical module utilizes a wavelength division multiplexing technology, different central wavelengths are needed to be used for sending and receiving optical signals in two directions, the module manufacturing difficulty is increased, and the technical cost is high. Further, it is considered that an optical circulator is used in a single-fiber bidirectional optical module, and the optical circulator is used for separating forward transmission optical signals and backward transmission optical signals in the same optical fiber, so as to implement transmission and reception of optical signals with the same central wavelength or different central wavelengths. Therefore, integrating optical circulators in optical devices and optical modules is a solution to effectively save fiber resources.
A general optical circulator has three ports, namely a first port, a second port and a third port, and its basic function is to realize transmission of optical signals from the first port to the second port, and signals from the second port cannot return to the first port, but can realize transmission from the second port to the third port. Optical circulators are fundamental devices in the fields of optical communications, optical sensing, and optical information processing, and have found very important applications in these fields. In the field of optical communication, the use of the optical circulator can also enable a common double-port optical transceiver module to realize single-optical-fiber bidirectional transmission.
The optical circulator in the prior art has the problems of large size, complex packaging, high cost and the like, and the reason is that the optical circulator in the prior art has a relatively complex internal structure, including a wave plate array or a birefringent crystal array, and is not beneficial to improving the integration level of the optical circulator.

Detailed Description
For a better understanding and explanation of the present invention, reference will now be made in detail to the present invention as illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The present invention is not limited to these specific embodiments only. Rather, modifications and equivalents of the invention are intended to be included within the scope of the claims.
It should be noted that numerous specific details are set forth in the following detailed description. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. In the following detailed description of various embodiments, structures and components well known in the art are not described in detail in order to not unnecessarily obscure the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of an optical circulator according to the present invention includes a collimating lens 20, a faraday rotator 30, a first port 11, a second port 12, a third port 13, a first polarization beam splitter 101, a second polarization beam splitter 102, a third polarization beam splitter 103, a first polarization rotator 111, and a second polarization rotator 112. In addition, it should be noted that the dashed lines representing the optical signals in fig. 1 have different labels respectively, and are used to show the optical paths of various types of optical signals in the optical circulator. Wherein the dotted line corresponding to the reference numeral "1" refers to mixed polarized light in the waveguide, the dotted line corresponding to the reference numeral "2" refers to P polarized light in the waveguide, the dotted line corresponding to the reference numeral "3" refers to S polarized light in the waveguide, and the dotted line corresponding to the reference numeral "4" refers to mixed polarized light in free space.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the design of the optical circulator is intended to achieve that the optical signal injected into the optical circulator can enter from the first port 11 and then exit from the second port 12, and that the optical signal injected into the second port 12 exits from the third port 13.
When the optical signal entering the first port 11 is single-polarization P-ray, in the optical circulator provided in this embodiment, the parallel-polarization light (i.e., the single-polarization P-ray) incident from the first port 11 sequentially passes through the third polarization beam splitter 103, the second polarization rotator 112, the collimating lens 20, the faraday rotator 30, the collimating lens 20, and the first polarization beam splitter 101 to reach the second port 12, and specifically, the parallel-polarization light passing through the optical device forms a first optical path from the first port 11 to the second port 12.
The mixed polarized light (including P-polarized light and S-polarized light) incident from the second port 12 enters the first polarization beam splitter 101 and is split into first polarized light and second polarized light which are perpendicular to each other, specifically, for example, the first polarized light is P-polarized light and the second polarized light is S-polarized light. The first polarized light sequentially passes through the collimating lens 20, the faraday rotator 30, the collimating lens 20, the second polarization rotator 112, the third polarization beam splitter 103, and the second polarization beam splitter 102 to reach the third port 13, and the first polarized light passing through the optical device forms a second light path; the second polarized light sequentially passes through the collimating lens 20, the faraday rotator 30, the collimating lens 20, the first polarization rotator 111, and the second polarization beam splitter 102 to reach the third port 13, and the second polarized light passing through the optical device forms a third optical path. Since both the first polarized light and the second polarized light pass through the second polarization beam splitter 102, one of the functions of the second polarization beam splitter 102 is to perform polarization beam combination on the first polarized light and the second polarized light incident therein to obtain mixed polarized light, so that the optical signal emitted from the third port 13 is still mixed polarized light.
In more application scenarios, the optical signal entering the first port 11 may not only be single-polarization P light, but also mixed-polarization light. In order to make the mixed polarized light normally enter from the first port 11 and then exit from the second port 12, the internal structure of the optical circulator shown in fig. 1 needs to be expanded accordingly, and two polarization beam splitters may be added to the structure of the optical circulator shown in fig. 1. Referring to fig. 2, which is a schematic structural diagram of a preferred embodiment of the optical circulator according to the present invention, compared to the structure of the optical circulator shown in fig. 1, the optical circulator shown in fig. 2 further includes a fourth polarization beam splitter 104 and a fifth polarization beam splitter 105. The mixed polarized light entering from the first port enters the third polarization beam splitter and is split into third polarized light and fourth polarized light perpendicular to each other, specifically, for example, the third polarized light is P-polarized light, and the fourth polarized light is S-polarized light. The third polarized light sequentially passes through the fifth polarization beam splitter 105, the second polarization rotator 112, the collimating lens 20, the faraday rotator 30, the collimating lens 20, and the first polarization beam splitter 101 to reach the second port 12, and a fourth light path is formed by the third polarized light of the optical device; the fourth polarized light sequentially passes through the fourth polarization beam splitter 104, the first polarization rotator 111, the collimator lens 20, the faraday rotator 30, the collimator lens 20, and the first polarization beam splitter 101 to reach the second port 12, and a fifth light path is formed by the fourth polarized light passing through the optical device. Since both the third polarized light and the fourth polarized light pass through the fourth polarization beam splitter 104, one of the functions of the fourth polarization beam splitter 104 is to perform polarization beam combination on the third polarized light and the fourth polarized light incident therein to obtain mixed polarized light, so that the optical signal emitted from the second port 12 is still mixed polarized light.
In the first to fifth optical paths, in order to return the optical signal emitted from the collimator lens 20 to the collimator lens 20 after passing through the faraday rotator 30 and then passing through the faraday rotator 30 again, it is considered that an appropriate reflection optical device is disposed behind the faraday rotator 30. A mirror 31 is arranged, for example, on the exit optical face of the faraday rotator 30, which mirror 31 is typically located in the focal plane of the collimator lens 20 to form a telecentric stop system. For cost reduction and simplification of the structure, it is typically considered in a preferred embodiment that the reflecting mirror 31 is designed as a reflecting film formed on the exit optical surface.
In order to realize the first to fifth optical paths, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that suitable optical polarization rotation angles should be selected for the first polarization rotator 111, the second polarization rotator 112, and the faraday rotator 30. Typically, in the present embodiment, it is considered that the optical polarization rotation angle of the first polarization rotator 111 and the second polarization rotator 112 is set to negative 45 degrees, and the optical polarization rotation angle of the faraday rotator 30 is set to positive 22.5 degrees.
Based on the selected parameters, referring to fig. 1 and 2, the mixed polarized light composed of the P-polarized light and the S-polarized light entering from the first port 11 is divided into the P-polarized light and the S-polarized light after passing through the third polarization beam splitter 103, wherein the P-polarized light enters the fifth polarization beam splitter 105, and then enters the second polarization rotator 112 to implement-45 degree polarization rotation, and then is collimated after passing through the collimating lens 20, enters the faraday rotator 30 to generate +22.5 degree polarization rotation, and is reflected after reaching the mirror 31 to pass through the faraday rotator 30 again and generate +22.5 degree polarization rotation, so that the P-polarized light reaches the first polarization beam splitter 101 through the collimating lens 20; the S polarized light enters the fourth polarization beam splitter 104, and then enters the first polarization rotator 111 to realize-45 degree polarization rotation, and is collimated after passing through the collimating lens 20, enters the faraday rotator 30 to generate +22.5 degree polarization rotation, and is reflected after reaching the reflector 31 to pass through the faraday rotator 30 again and generate +22.5 degree polarization rotation, so that the S polarized light reaches the first polarization beam splitter 101 after passing through the collimating lens 20; the P-polarized light and the S-polarized light are polarized and combined by the first polarization beam splitter 101, and finally emitted from the second port 12.
The mixed polarized light composed of the P polarized light and the S polarized light entering from the second port 12 is divided into the P polarized light and the S polarized light after passing through the first polarization beam splitter 101, wherein the P polarized light is collimated after passing through the collimating lens 20, enters the faraday rotator 30 to undergo +22.5 degree polarization rotation, reaches the mirror 31, is reflected to pass through the faraday rotator 30 again and undergo +22.5 degree polarization rotation, then passes through the second polarization rotator 112 to undergo +45 degree polarization rotation to form the S polarized light, and reaches the second polarization beam splitter 102 through the fifth polarization beam splitter 105; the S polarized light is collimated after passing through the collimating lens 20, enters the Faraday rotator 30 to be subjected to + 22.5-degree polarization rotation, is reflected after reaching the reflector 31 to pass through the Faraday rotator 30 again and to be subjected to + 22.5-degree polarization rotation, is subjected to + 45-degree polarization rotation through the first polarization rotator 111 to form P polarized light, and reaches the second polarization beam splitter 102 through the fourth polarization beam splitter 104; the P-polarized light and the S-polarized light are polarized and combined by the second polarization beam splitter 102, and finally emitted from the second port 12.
With the development of processing technology, and in particular the advent of silicon photonics, it is preferably considered to integrate multiple optical devices in the optical circulator shown in fig. 1 or 2 using silicon photonics. Preferably, any combination of the first polarization beam splitter 101, the second polarization beam splitter 102, the third polarization beam splitter 103, the fourth polarization beam splitter 104, the fifth polarization beam splitter 105, the first polarization rotator 111 and the second polarization rotator 112 is disposed on the integrated chip 10. Further, it may also be preferable to provide the first port 11, the second port 12 and the third port 13 on the integrated chip 10. Even the collimator lens 20, the faraday rotator 30 and the mirror 31 are disposed on the integrated chip 10. Wherein the integrated chip 10 is a silicon-based integrated chip. The size of the optical circulator can be greatly reduced by the arrangement, so that the structure of the optical circulator is more compact, and the integration level of the optical circulator is improved.
In addition, the integrated chip 10 and the collimating lens 20 need to be optically coupled. For the coupling to be simple and convenient, the light ports of the integrated chip 10 coupled to the collimating lens 20 may be disposed on the same plane or even on the same straight line. The number of the optical ports coupled to the collimating lens 20 on the integrated chip 10 is 4, and the optical ports are arranged in a central symmetry manner. Therefore, at least part of interfaces are shared by the outgoing light and the incoming light, so that the cost is saved and the coupling difficulty is reduced.
Correspondingly, the invention also provides a single-fiber bidirectional optical module which comprises a light emitting device, a light receiving device and the optical circulator provided by the application. The optical circulator is applied to the single-fiber bidirectional optical module as a light guide unit, is optically coupled with the light emitting device and the light receiving device, and is favorable for improving the integration level of the single-fiber bidirectional optical module and saving the inner space of the single-fiber bidirectional optical module. The light emitting device and the light receiving device can be integrated on the integrated chip 10 of the optical circulator or can be separate devices.
It will be evident to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the foregoing illustrative embodiments, and that the present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential attributes thereof. The present embodiments are, therefore, to be considered as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the invention being indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim concerned. Furthermore, it will be obvious that the term "comprising" does not exclude other elements, units or steps, and the singular does not exclude the plural.
