Measurement of the nonlinear optical coefficients is not an easy task since it requires complicated experimental setup and analysis. We suggest an easy way to estimate the relative nonlinear optical tensor components by direct measurement of the output powers of the second harmonic generation and spontaneous parametric down conversion experiments. The experiments were done in quasi-phase-matched type-0 as well as type-1 interactions at similar pump wavelengths in a 5% MgO-doped periodically poled $LiNbO_3$ crystal to obtain the ratio of the nonlinear optical tensor components $d_{33}/d_{31}$ in each experiment. The obtained ratios were then compared with the previously ascertained values [J. Opt. Soc. Am. B, 14, 2268-2294 (1997)].

We analyze the linear equalizers used in optically amplified on-off-keyed (OOK) systems to combat chromatic dispersion (CD) and polarization mode dispersion (PMD), and we derive the mathematical minimum mean squared error (MMSE) performance of these equalizers. Currently, the MMSE linear equalizer for optical OOK systems is obtained by simulations using adaptive approaches such as least mean squared (LMS) or constant modulus algorithm (CMA), but no theoretical studies on the optimal solutions for these equalizers have been performed. We model the optical OOK systems as square-law nonlinear channels and compute the MMSE equalizer coefficients directly from the estimated optical channel, signal power, and optical noise variance. The accuracy of the calculated MMSE equalizer coefficients and MMSE performance has been verified by simulations using adaptive algorithms.

Two different carbazolylnitrostilbene chromophores with second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) activity were newly synthesized by the reaction of 9-(2-hydroxyethyl)-9H-carbazol-3-carbaldehyde with 4-nitrophenylacetonitrile or 4-nitrophenylacetic acid. The NLO monomers were obtained by reaction of these chromophores with methacryloyl chloride. The side-chain nonlinear optical polymers were synthesized by the copolymerization of NLO monomer with methylmethacrylate using a free radical initiator. The chemical structures of the polymers were identified by spectroscopic means and the polymer properties such as molecular weight, Tg, solubility, UV-visible absorption, and second-harmonic generation (SHG) coefficients were investigated.

The various techniques to compensate for the signal distortion due to the group velocity dispersion (GVD) and nonlinear Kerr effects of optical fibers in the optical links have been proposed in the literature. We propose a flexible dispersion-managed link configuration consisted of single-mode and dispersion-compensating fibers with irregular dispersion coefficients over all fiber spans, and an optical phase conjugator added midway along the optical links. By distributing the lengths of the single mode fibers, we achieve a flexible optical link. The simultaneous ascending and descending distribution of the single-mode fiber lengths before and after the optical phase conjugator, respectively, best compensates the distorted wavelength division multiplexed signals in the optical link with non-fixed coefficients. Our result is consistent with those of our previous work on fixed coefficients. Therefore, to improve the compensation at any magnitude of dispersion coefficient, we must artificially distribute the lengths of the single-mode fibers into a dispersion-managed link.

Communications, data storage or computation by manipulating the optical signals have the strong advantages over the traditional electronic circuits in regard to the data handling speed and capacity. Effective manipulation of the optical signals, however, requires materials of large nonlinear coefficients and of fast response time. Polymeric materials are one of the promising materials to meet the requirements for nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. (omitted)

2,5-Di-(2'-hydroxyethoxy)benzylidenemalononitrile (3) was prepared and polymerized with 2,4-toluenediisocyanate and 3,3'-dimethoxy-4,4'-biphenylenediisocyanate to yield novel T-type polyurethanes 4 and 5 containing 2,5-dioxybenzylidenemalononitrile, nonlinear optical (NLO)-chromophores as part of the polymer backbones. Polyurethanes 4 and 5 were soluble in common organic solvents such as acetone and N,Ndimethylformamide and showed a thermal stability up to $250{^{\circ}C}$ with glass-transition temperatures ($T_g$) in the range $119-146{^{\circ}C}$. The second harmonic generation (SHG) coefficients ($d_{33}$) of poled polymer films at 1064 nm fundamental wavelength were around $5.82{\times}10^{-9}$ esu. The dipole alignment exhibited high thermal stability up to $T_g$, and there was no SHG decay below $140{^{\circ}C}$ due to the partial main-chain character of the polymer structure, which was acceptable for nonlinear optical device applications.

전체 광 중계 구간 모두 불규칙한 분산 계수를 갖는 단일 모드 광섬유와 분산 보상 광섬유 (DCF; dispersion compensating fiber)를 이용한 융통적인 분산 제어 링크 구조를 제안하였다. 링크의 융통적 구성은 각 전송 반 구획에서 DCF의 분산 계수를 기준으로 이들을 인위적으로 분포시켜서 가능하게 하였다. 광 위상 공액기 전의 전송 반 구획에서는 DCF의 분산 계수를 점진적으로 증가시키고, 광 위상 공액기 다음의 전송 반 구획에서는 DCF의 분산 계수를 점진적으로 감소시키는 'AD' 분포에서 왜곡된 파장 분할 다중(WDM; wavelength division multiplexed) 신호가 최상으로 보상되는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 왜곡된 WDM 채널의 보상 효과를 더욱 증가시키기 위해서는 광섬유의 길이, 중계 구간 당 잉여 분산뿐만 아니라 광섬유의 분산 계수에 상관없이 'AD' 분포를 선택할 필요가 있다는 것을 확인하였다.

In this study, a PID control method for sweeping automatic linearization of a wavelength swept laser is proposed. First, the closedloop transfer function embodying the PID control is derived. Through the simulation of the function, K_p = 0.022, K_i = 0.008, K_d = 0.002 were obtained as the best PID coefficients for fast linear sweeping. The performance test using the PID coefficients showed that linear sweeping was held up well with a 98.7% decrement in nonlinearity after the 10th feedback, and 45 nm sweeping range, 1 kHz sweeping frequency, and 8.8 mW average optical power were obtained. The equipment consists of a fiber Bragg grating array, an optical-electronic conversion circuit, and a LabVIEW FPGA program. Every 5s, automatic feedback and PID control generate a new compensated waveform and produce a better linear sweeping than before. Compared with nonlinear sweeping, linear sweeping can reduce the cumbersome and time-consuming recalibration processes and produce more accurate measurement results.

The quasi-phase matching (QPM) technique has dramatically changed the guidelines in developing nonlinear optical materials, which doesn't require birefringence and off-diagonal components for efficient wavelength conversion. Minimum requirement for QPM is the modulation of nonlinearity and ferroelectric materials with low coercive field has become fascinating in periodical poling. Stoichiometric lithium tantalate (SLT) has attractive advantages of low coercive field (∼l .5 KV/mm), high nonlinearity, high optical damage resistance and low thermo-optic coefficients, leading to a large aperture QPM devices for high power operation.
