Drive-noise tolerant optical switching inspired by composite pulses
英文摘要:
Electro-optic modulators within Mach--Zehnder interferometers are a common construction for optical switches in integrated photonics. A challenge faced when operating at high switching speeds is that noise from the electronic drive signals will effect switching performance. Inspired by the Mach--Zehnder lattice switching devices of Van Campenhout et al. [Opt. Express, 17, 23793 (2009)] and techniques from the field of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance known as composite pulses, we present switches which offer protection against drive-noise in both the on and off state of the switch for both the phase and intensity information encoded in the switched optical mode.
