In this paper, we investigate survivability in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) mesh networks and propose a new algorithm called improved shared-path protection (ISPP) to completely tolerate the double-link failures. Compared with previous algorithms for protecting double-link failures, i.e., shared-path protection (SPP) and shared-link protection (SLP), the advantage of ISPP is to allow primary paths and backup paths to share the mixed wavelength-links based on the proposed new rules in which some primary wavelength-links can be changed to mixed wavelength-links, which can be shared by primary paths and backup paths. In addition, some mixed wavelength-links also can be shared by different backup paths for saving resources. Simulation results show that ISPP algorithm performs better in resource utilization ratio and blocking probability than conventional SPP and SLP algorithms.

When wavelength division optical coupler is fabricated with the polished single mode optical fiber, coupling coeffiecient differ from wavelength and distance to two cores. Wavelength division is function of the differential coupling coefficient to distance of two cores. This paper suggests the condition of the minimum spacing of the wavelength division with the function of the distance of two cores.

We experimentally demonstrate resonant-wavelength control of a series of an Si-based photonic crystal nanocavity. The cavities show a linear dependence on these parameters, a 1 nm increase of lattice constant leading to 4.2 nm increase of the resonant wavelength. The results have a small standard deviation of wavelength 1.1 nm between samples on a single chip.

The wavelength demultiplexer is an essential component in optical transmission systems using wavelength-division multiplexing(WDM), which can increase the number of channels and information capacity of optical fibers. For optical telecommunication, much attention has been given to demultiplexing two wavelengths in the 1.3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ of low dispersion band and 1.55${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ of low loss window. Various integrated-optical devices have been proposed to perform this function, including conventional directional couplers, asymmetric Y-branching devices, asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometers and two-mode interference devices.

A wavelength tunable all-optical clock recovery using a semiconductor optical amplifier in a fiber ring cavity is proposed and demonstrated at the wavelength of 1530 nm to 1570 nm. A synchronized optical pulse train is recovered from 10 Gbps and 30 Gbps randomly generated optical pulse streams with injection locking technique. Also, the system responses to the perturbation and the input average power variation are analyzed by a large-signal model based on time-domain travelling wave equation. ation.

This paper evaluates performance of a dynamic wavelength and bandwidth allocation algorithm of TWDM PON (time and wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network) which consists of an OLT (optical line termination) and multiple ONU (optical network unit). The allocation algorithm reduces the number of upstream wavelengths to save power. Using self-similar traffic, we simulate TWDM PON systems and measure the average packet delay and the average number of upstream wavelengths.

This paper proposes a new dynamic wavelength and bandwidth allocation algorithm for TWDM PON (time and wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network) which consists of an OLT (optical line termination) and multiple ONU (optical network unit). The proposed algorithm dynamically limits the number of the upstream wavelengths based on the request amount of ONUs to save power.

Polymeric optical waveguide devices with Bragg gratings have been investigated, for implementing tunable lasers and wavelength filters used in wavelength-division-multiplexed optical communication systems. Owing to the excellent thermo-optic effect of these polymers, wavelength tuning is possible over a wide range, which is difficult to achieve using other optical materials. In this study the phase-mask technology, which has advantages over the conventional interferometeric method, was introduced to facilitate the fabrication of Bragg gratings in polymeric optical waveguide devices. An optical setup capable of fabricating multiple Bragg gratings simultaneously on a 4-inch silicon wafer was constructed, using a 442-nm laser and phase mask. During fabrication, some of the diffracted light in the phase mask was totally reflected inside the mask, which affected the quality of the Bragg grating adversely, so experiments were conducted to solve this issue. To verify grating uniformity, two types of wavelength-filtering devices were fabricated using the phase-mask lithography, and their reflection and transmission spectra were measured. From the results, we confirmed that the phase-mask method provides good uniformity, and may be applied for mass production of polymer Bragg-grating waveguide devices.
