Outline of Final Research Achievements |
With the aim of applying to ultra-multilevel coherent optical communication, I have developed a wideband, narrow linewidth optical voltage controller (OVCO) by using an acousto-optic modulator (AOM) and a narrow linewidth laser. By employing a InP-based AOM, I have realized a wideband OVCO with a 0.1 dB-frequency response bandwidth of ±2.5 MHz. With an optical phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit consisting of the present OVCO and a 1.5 um narrow linewidth fiber laser, which enables us to realize carrier phase synchronization between the transmitted data and the LO signal, I have successfully transmitted a 120 Gbit/s 64 QAM data over 150 km. This is the first time coherent transmission with an AOM-based OVCO-PLL system.
