Generation of a 100-GHz optical pulse train by pulse repetition-rate multiplication using superimposed fiber Bragg gratings
Generation of a 100-GHz optical pulse train by pulse repetition-rate multiplication using superimposed fiber Bragg gratings
We demonstrate the use of superimposed fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) operating in reflection as amplitude and phase filtering stages for multiplying the repetition rate of a given optical pulse sequence. In particular, we use a 1-cm-long structure of two superimposed linearly chirped FBGs to generate a continuous optical pulse train with a repetition rate of 100 GHz (duty cycle /spl ap/50%) at a wavelength of 1.55 μm from a 10-GHz mode-locked fiber laser.

Abstract
We demonstrate the use of superimposed fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) operating in reflection as amplitude and phase filtering stages for multiplying the repetition rate of a given optical pulse sequence. In particular, we use a 1-cm-long structure of two superimposed linearly chirped FBGs to generate a continuous optical pulse train with a repetition rate of 100 GHz (duty cycle /spl ap/50%) at a wavelength of 1.55 μm from a 10-GHz mode-locked fiber laser.
