英文摘要：

Using the Jones formalism, it is shown that electro-optic modulators used for phase modulation generate a modulation of the output polarization induced by the difference of phase modulation depth along the crystallographic axes of the modulator. We study two consequences of this polarization modulation in the fiber setups, limiting the performance of high sensitivity measurement devices. The first one is its partial conversion into a residual amplitude modulation (RAM) within any component presenting polarization dependent losses (PDL). The second one is a new effect that consists of the distortion of the signal detected at the output of a fiber cavity. The theoretical expressions of the detected signals are computed in each case.

Repetition rate stabilization of an optical frequency comb based on solid-state laser technology with an intra-cavity electro-optic modulator

The repetition rate stabilization of an optical frequency comb based on diode-pumped solid-state laser technology is demonstrated using an intra-cavity electro-optic modulator. The large feedback bandwidth of such modulators allows disciplining the comb repetition rate on a cavity-stabilized continuous-wave laser with a locking bandwidth up to 700 kHz. This surpasses what can be achieved with any other type of actuator reported so far. An in-loop integrated phase noise of 133 mrad has been measured and the PM-to-AM coupling of the electro-optic modulator has been investigated as well.

High-modulation-efficiency InGaAsP/Si hybrid MOS optical modulator with Mach-Zehnder interferometer

A high-modulation-efficiency optical modulator integrated on silicon (Si) is a key enabler for low-power and high-capacity optical interconnects. However, Si-based optical modulators suffer from low phase modulation efficiency owing to the weak plasma dispersion effect in Si. Therefore, it is essential to find a novel modulation scheme that is compatible with a Si photonics platform. Here, we demonstrate an InGaAsP/Si hybrid metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) optical modulator with a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) formed by direct wafer bonding with an Al2O3 bonding interface. Electron accumul…

Analog Stabilization of an Electro-Optic I/Q Modulator with an Auxiliary Modulation Tone

Proper operation of electro-optic I/Q modulators rely on precise adjustment and control of the relative phase biases between the modulator's internal interferometer arms. We present an all-analog phase bias locking scheme where error signals are obtained from the beat between the optical carrier and optical tones generated by an auxiliary 2 MHz RF-tone to lock the phases of all three involved interferometers for operation up to 10 GHz. With the developed method, we demonstrate an I/Q modulator in carrier-suppressed single-sideband mode, where the suppressed carrier and sideband are locked at o…

High-frequency, resonant acousto-optic modulators fabricated in a MEMS foundry platform

We report the design and characterization of high frequency, resonant acousto-optic modulators (AOM) in a MEMS foundry process. The doubly-resonant cavity design, with short ($L{\sim}10.5\, μm$) acoustic and optical cavity lengths, allows us to measure acousto-optic modulation at GHz frequencies with high modulation efficiency. In contrast to traditional AOMs, these devices rely on the perturbation induced by the displacement of cavity boundaries, which can be significantly enhanced in a suspended geometry. This platform can serve as the building block for fast 2D spatial light modulators (SLM…

一种提高光强斜升时光束指向稳定性的双频声光调制器驱动器

A two-frequency acousto-optic modulator driver to improve the beam pointing stability during intensity ramps

提出了一种提高声光调制器衍射一级光束指向稳定性的方案。由于晶体内部的热效应，当AOM中的射频功率降低以降低一阶光束强度时，光束的角位置可以改变多达1 mrad。例如，在超冷原子实验中，使用远离共振的光学陷阱来执行强制蒸发冷却。我们通过用两个射频$f_1$和$f_2$驱动AOM来解决这个问题。相对于$f_1$的功率调整$f_2$的功率，以保持总功率恒定。利用这一点，梁位移减少了20倍。该方法在现有的实验装置中实现简单，无需对光学器件进行任何修改。

Silicon nitride stress-optic microresonator modulator for optical control applications

The silicon nitride integration platform has been successful at realizing extremely low waveguide losses across the visible to infrared and components including high performance lasers, filters, resonators, stabilization cavities, and optical frequency combs. Yet, progress towards implementing low loss, low power modulators in the silicon nitride platform, while maintaining the planar, wafer-scale process compatibility has been limited. Here we report a significant advance in integration of a piezo-electric (PZT) actuated micro-ring modulation in a fully-planar, wafer-scale silicon nitride pla…
