Description
Technical field
Stage linked body holographic grating dense wave division multiplexer spare manufacture method and system thereof belong to optical communication technique and sensory field of optic fibre.
Background technology
At present wavelength division multiplex device (WDM) in optical communication system and optical fiber sensing system for enhanced system transmission capacity and the important effect of the positive play more and more of application flexibility.Existing several WDM device comprises Mach-Zehnder interferometer, array waveguide grating (AWG), planar light spectrometer, directional coupler etc.; For the device application of estimating, for example Fiber to the home uses, and big number of active lanes, low insertion loss and the compatibility that is connected coupling, LASER Light Source and detector with optical fiber all are the advantageous characteristic feature of WDM device; In addition, wavelength selectivity and branch light action also are two kinds of desired functional characteristics.
The Bragg grating device has high diffraction efficiency, high wavelength selectivity and high angular selectivity, being subjected to considerable research recent years pays close attention to, the device described in following list of references [1]-[4] for example: [1] Piepaolo Boffi, Maria Chiara Ubaldi Piccinin, Claudio Frascolla, and Mario Martinelli, " 1550-nm Volume Holography for Optical Communication Devices ", IEEE Photonics Technol.Lett., Vol.12, No.10, pp.1355,2000[2] Xiaoli Fu, Martin Fay, and J.M.Xu, " 1 * 8 Supergrating wavelength-division demultiplexer in a silica planar waveguide ", Optics Letters, Vol.22, No.21, pp.1627,1997[3] Revital Shechter, Yaakov Amital, and Asher A.Friesem, " Compact wavelength division multiplexers and demultiplexers ", Applied Optics, Vol.41, No.7, pp.1256,2002[4] United States Patent (USP) U.S.Pat.No.5,970,190.
These devices adopt proximal surface input path (i.e. 90 ° of light paths) or transmission-type record how much usually with the pairing grating multiplexing recording of different wave length passage the same area at medium, and Fig. 1 has provided a typical device example, and the 1st, comprise wavelength X

The major defect of these devices is: 1) owing to the pairing grating multiplexing recording of different wave length passage the same area at medium, when body grating uses as wavelength multiplexing (or demultiplexing) device, usually require output light (or input light) to propagate, so the grating fringe face of different wavelength correspondences must have different orientation along same direction.Its result, the input light of different wave length passage (or output light) must be propagated along different angle directions, for optical fiber input and output coupling brings huge difficulty; 2) under existing recorded material and technical conditions, because the recording wavelength (being the sensitive wave length of medium) of volume holographic grating differs very big with the infrared communication wave band, if record all adopts 90 ° of light paths with use, bragg condition can not satisfy, and therefore has to adopt very complicated tape deck; 3) use for high density, big figure WDM, the raster count M that superposes in same volume medium is subjected to the limited refractive index dynamic range of recording medium and the restriction of signal to noise ratio, and (the η ∝ 1/M that must cause the diffraction efficiency of each passage seriously to descend
2), promptly serious insertion loss; 4) secondary lobe is higher, and when the wavelength departure peak wavelength, diffraction efficiency is sinc with wavelength change basically
2Functional form, incompatible with the finite bandwidth of light source light spectrum, crosstalk in different interchannels generations; 5) body grating that writes down in photorefractive crystal as easy as rolling off a log being wiped free of and losing in readout repeatedly also can be failed simultaneously in time gradually, produces unacceptable insertion loss.
