The output of the mach-zehnder optical fiber interferometer varies with birefringences existing in the figer arms. New equations experessing for the visibility of the mach-zehnder interferometer were derived in terms of a number of parameters related to the birefringences, the input SOP and the optical losses. Based on the equations the visibility of the interferometer was simulated in different cases. Some maximum visibility conditons were also presented.

Mach-Zehnder type GaAs elcetro-optic waveguide modulator has been designed in this paper.The modulator. Considered is based on the Mach-Zehnder interferometer configuration, consisting of two Y branch couping rib type waveguides formed in two epitaxial layers on GaAs substrate. The mode theory on waveguides and electo-optic effect of GaAs were utilized to determine the design parameters for the modulator proposed. Effective index method was applied to design the of waveguide supporting a single mode were calculated to achieve the optimized operation of the modulator. Considering interrelationships between many parameters.

We theoretically investigated dispersion tolerance of an optical duobinary transmitter employed a Mach-Zehnder modulator and an optical filter. Compared to the optical transmitter based on a Mach-Zehnder modulator and an optical delay interferometer by optimizing the applied voltage for improving the dispersion tolerance, the demonstrated duobinary transmitter provides improved receiver sensitivity and higher dispersion tolerance while maintaining narrow spectral bandwidth.

In this paper, a sensitivity of the gravity acceleration $(0{\sim}1G)$ for a fiber-optic accelerometer is demonstrated. A single mode optical fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer was used to detect the change in optical path length produced by the strain in the fiber from probe mass about 1 gram. The phase conversion gain of the piezoelectric cylinder in the reference arm with this system measures 0.88rad./v.

We have proposed and experimentally demonstrated a novel fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensing interrogation method using bidirectional modulation of a Mach-Zehnder electro-optical modulator (MZ-EOM). The proposed structure consists mainly of a broadband light source (BBS), FBG, MZ-EOM, chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG), and photodetector (PD). We have obtained the transfer functions of the proposed structure and calculated the time delay from the change in the free spectral range (FSR) for ten wavelengths over the frequency range of 505 MHz to 525 MHz. The results show that the time delay and the wavelength variation have a good linear relationship with a gradient of 12.9 ps/0.2 nm, which can be usefully applied to FBG strain or temperature sensors and other multiplexed sensor applications.

The performance evaluation and fabrication of integrated-optic electric-field sensor utilizing $Ti:LiNbO_3$ asymmetric Mach-Zehnder intensity modulator with a push-pull lumped electrode and a plate-type probe antenna to measure an electric field strength is described. The modulator has a small device size of $46{\times}7{\times}1\;mm$ and operates at a wavelength $1.3{\mu}m$. The devices are simulated based on the BPM software and fabricated utilizing Ti-diffused $LiNbO_3$ channel optical waveguides. The minimum detectable electric field is 1.02 V/m and 6.91 V/m, corresponding to a dynamic range of ~35 dB and ~10 dB at the frequencies of 500 KHz and 5 MHz, respectively.

Integrated-optic symmetric/asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometers at $1.3{\mu}m$ wavelength were studied as sensing part for electric-field measurement system. The devices were simulated based on the BPM software and fabricated utilizing Ti-diffused $LiNbO_3$ channel optical waveguides and lumped-type electrodes. A half-wave voltage of $V_{\pi}$=6.6V and modulation depth of 100% and 75% for a symmetric structure were measured for 200Hz and 1kHz electrical signal bandwidth, respectively. By the way, almost half-maximum power transmission was observed for asymmetric interferometers with ${\pi}$/2 intrinsic phase difference. Expected experimental measurements were observed for 1kHz electrical signal bandwidth.
