Demonstration of birefringent optical fibre frequency shifter employing torsional acoustic waves

Demonstration of birefringent optical fibre frequency shifter employing torsional acoustic waves
Demonstration of birefringent optical fibre frequency shifter employing torsional acoustic waves
A fibre-optic frequency shifter utilising torsional acoustic waves to produce a travelling perturbation which couples the polarisation modes of a linearly birefringent optical fibre is demonstrated. The shift in optical frequency was 3.195 MHz and an optical coupling efficiency of 6% was obtained with 780mW of electrical power.

Abstract

A fibre-optic frequency shifter utilising torsional acoustic waves to produce a travelling perturbation which couples the polarisation modes of a linearly birefringent optical fibre is demonstrated. The shift in optical frequency was 3.195 MHz and an optical coupling efficiency of 6% was obtained with 780mW of electrical power.
