Noise properties of dual Mach-Zehnder interferometers employing narrowband fiber ASE source

Noise properties of dual Mach-Zehnder interferometers employing narrowband fiber ASE source
Noise properties of dual Mach-Zehnder interferometers employing narrowband fiber ASE source
We report a detailed study of the noise properties of dual Mach-Zehnder interferometers interrogated with narrowband (<15GHz) fiber ASE sources. A minimum detectable phase of 62 µrad/Hz1/2 is obtained for practical values (~1cm) of length mismatch using a simple heterodyne technique and optimized configuration.

Abstract

We report a detailed study of the noise properties of dual Mach-Zehnder interferometers interrogated with narrowband (<15GHz) fiber ASE sources. A minimum detectable phase of 62 µrad/Hz1/2 is obtained for practical values (~1cm) of length mismatch using a simple heterodyne technique and optimized configuration.
