Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an optical coupling device between an optical waveguide and a polarization rotating reflective element, and a reflective optical delay interferometer device using the same.

An embodiment of the present invention relates to an optical coupling device between an optical waveguide and a polarization rotation reflective element and a reflection type optical delay line interferometer using the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to an optical coupling device between an optical waveguide and a rotating reflective element for coupling an optical waveguide such as a planar optical waveguide with a polarization rotating reflective element when implementing an optical waveguide-based interferometer, and a reflective optical delay interferometer .

The contents described in this section merely provide background information on the embodiment of the present invention, but do not necessarily constitute the prior art.

A planar optical waveguide is an optical element that can perform a specific function of controlling the propagation characteristics of a beam by forming a waveguide that can control the direction of light on a planar substrate.

An optical device using a planar waveguide has advantages of excellent stability and high integration compared to a fiber-based device. It can be applied to an amplitude modulator and a phase modulator based on a silica-based coupler, an array waveguide grating (AWG), an optical interleaver, a delay interferometer, and a lithium niobate based.

The planar optical waveguide is formed by depositing a core material of a waveguide having a suitable refractive index on a flat substrate such as silicon or silica and etching the waveguide according to the designed waveguide shape to form a core, Clad) is deposited on the substrate. The planar optical waveguide exhibits a birefringence characteristic in which the refractive index varies depending on the polarization state of the beam due to a phenomenon in which the cross-sectional shape of the core is quadrangular and the cladding layer is a heterogeneous material. The polarization dependent characteristics of an optical device are generally represented by values such as polarization dependent loss (PDL) and polarization mode dispersion (PMD).

As described above, the planar optical waveguide is remarkably birefringent, unlike the waveguide of the optical fiber type, and the polarization dependence characteristic is remarkable. In particular, when an asymmetric interferometer such as a delay interferometer or an optical interleaver is constructed using a planar waveguide, a polarization dependent wavelength shift (PDWS) phenomenon occurs due to birefringence.

The PDWS depends on the effective refractive index of the waveguide when the polarization of the input beam is different from that of TE (Transverse Electric) polarized light or TM (Transverse Magnetic) polarized light. The polarization dependent wavelength transition (PDWS) This phenomenon refers to inconsistency. When the amount of wavelength shift (PDWS) is negligible by several percent compared to the free spectral range (FSR) of the interference spectrum, the effective transmission band narrows and the characteristics of the device are degraded. In general, a delay interferometer with a large asymmetric length difference is more sensitive to the polarization dependent wavelength shift (PDWS) phenomenon because the transmission band is very narrow compared to the optical interleaver.

In order to solve the polarization dependent wavelength shift (PDWS) phenomenon of the planar waveguide based delay interferometer, a method of effectively suppressing the polarization dependent wavelength transition phenomenon by coupling the Faraday reflection mirror can be used. However, the optical fiber pigtail A method of direct coupling using a Butt Coupling or a Ferrule may be used to combine the absent Faraday reflection mirrors. However, when such a connection method is used, due to the weight of the Faraday rotation mirror, Physical force is applied to the optical fiber to weaken the durability and cause a large optical coupling loss.

In order to solve such a problem, an embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that, when a polarized-light reflection element such as a Faraday reflection mirror is coupled to an optical waveguide, a physical force is not applied to the coupling part, Optical coupling loss due to the optical coupling loss.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, an embodiment of the present invention relates to an optical coupling device between an optical waveguide and a polarization rotation reflecting element, wherein guided light having passed through the optical waveguide at one end is transmitted to the rotating reflecting element connected to the other end Pigtail optical fibers; And a support for supporting one end of the pigtail optical fiber.

Wherein the supporting portion has a predetermined length and width and is fixed to a substrate including the optical waveguide, wherein one side of the supporting portion is arranged to be parallel to the optical waveguide, a groove is formed on the one side of the supporting portion, The pigtail optical fiber may be positioned, and the groove may be V-shaped.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a reflection type optical delay line interferometer including: a coupler for splitting an input optical signal into two optical signals; A first optical waveguide having a first optical delay path for transmitting a first optical signal that is one of the two optical signals, and a second optical signal coupled to the coupler, the second optical signal being another one of the split optical signals, A second optical waveguide having a delay path and an asymmetrical second optical delay path, and a planar optical waveguide having the coupler, the first optical waveguide and the second optical waveguide integrated on one substrate; A first pigtail optical fiber for transmitting a guided light output of the first optical waveguide that has passed through the first optical delay path to a first polarized light reflection element and a first support portion for supporting one end of the first pigtail optical fiber ; And a second pigtail optical fiber for transmitting a guided light output of the second optical waveguide passing through the second optical delay path to a second polarized-light rotation reflecting element, and a second support for supporting one end of the second pigtail optical fiber, An optical coupling unit provided with the optical coupling unit; A first polarization rotating reflective element connected to the first pigtail optical fiber; And a second polarization rotating reflective element connected to the second pigtail optical fiber.

Wherein the first support portion has a predetermined length and width and is fixed to a substrate including the first optical waveguide, one side of the first optical waveguide is arranged to be parallel to the first optical waveguide, Wherein the first groove is formed in the first groove and the first pigtail optical fiber is disposed in the first groove and the second support is fixed to the substrate having the predetermined length and width and including the second optical waveguide, A second groove is formed in one side of the second waveguide in a waveguide light output direction of the second waveguide, and the second pigtail optical fiber is located in the second groove, .

The first groove and the second groove may be V-shaped.

As described above, according to the embodiment of the present invention, when a polarization rotating reflection element such as a Faraday rotation mirror is coupled to an optical waveguide, a physical force is applied to the coupling part even when the external environment changes due to the flexibility of a predetermined pigtail optical fiber. And the optical coupling loss generated in the coupling portion is reduced.

In addition, when constructing a Michelson type interferometer by using a planar optical waveguide and a Faraday rotation mirror, it is possible to improve the stability of the interferometer while securing the convenience of optical coupling, and also, when coupling the pigtail optical fiber to the planar optical waveguide, Since the V-groove is used, the coupling process is convenient and the assembly quality of the interferometer is improved.

The coupler 110 may be implemented in various forms such as a directional coupler, a multi-mode interference (MMI) coupler, or an optical output splitter in the form of a Y- have.

2 is a view showing a view from above of the optical coupling part 140 which is one of the optical coupling parts 140 and 150. FIG 3 is a view illustrating the shape of the pigtail optical fiber 141 and the supporting part 142 to be.

The first optical coupler 140 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. FIG.

The length and temperature difference of the two optical paths for maintaining the interference visibility of 99.9%, 99.5%, 90% or more show the tendency shown in FIG.

In the interferometer housing in temperature equilibrium state, the temperature deviation can be controlled to 0.01 o C or less. Therefore, even if the optical fiber pigtail length is several tens of millimeters, the sharpness of 99.9% or more can be maintained.

Generally, it is necessary to obtain an interference sharpness of 99% or more so that it can be regarded as a stable interferometer. o For C or less, a pigtail length of about 30 mm should be maintained. Therefore, in the present invention, it is preferable that the optical fiber pigtail length is kept within 30 mm.
