Optical phase oscillator with a maximum output amplifier |
摘要 |
An optical phase oscillator with a maximum output amplifier generates an oscillating phase signal and employs an amplifier that is operated at maximum output to maintain a constant magnitude oscillator output signal. A non-maximum output amplifier with a signal limiter can also be used.The device receives a continuous or semi-continuous wave input signal and produces an oscillating phase output signal that has the same wavelength as the input signal. The phase oscillator consists of a combiner, an amplifier, a phase inverter, and a splitter. The coherent input signal is used as an initialization signal to start the oscillations and does not need to remain on for steady-state operation. An inverted phase feedback signal advances the oscillations. The amplifier provides a signal large enough to be split into the output signal and a feedback signal. The steady-state output signal is a constant magnitude continuous wave oscillating binary phase shift-keying (BPSK) signal and is maintained without an input signal. The device is ideally suited for integrated optic components.
