    A novel fiber-optic frequency shifter was developed using a grating acoustic scanner. This device efficiently shifts light frequencies by manipulating acoustic waves within an optical fiber, achieving high sideband suppression.

    Area of Science:

    • Photonics and Wave Phenomena
    • Acousto-Optics
    • Materials Science (Lithium Niobate)

    Background:

    • Single-sideband (SSB) frequency shifting is crucial for optical communication and signal processing.
    • Existing methods for optical frequency shifting can be complex or inefficient.
    • Acousto-optic interactions in lithium niobate (LiNbO3) offer a promising avenue for integrated photonic devices.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To demonstrate a novel fiber-optic single-sideband frequency shifter.
    • To utilize a grating acoustic scanner for precise control of acoustic waves.
    • To achieve efficient phase-matched coupling between optical modes via acoustic waves.

    Main Methods:

    • A grating acoustic scanner based on lithium niobate was employed.

  • Surface-wave-to-bulk-wave conversion generated a 42 MHz acoustic bulk wave.
  • The acoustic wave was incident on an optical fiber at an adjustable angle.
  • Phase-matched coupling between optical modes was achieved by tuning the acoustic frequency.

    • Main Results:

    • An optical coupling efficiency of approximately 70% was realized.
    • Carrier sideband suppression reached 18 dB.
    • Image sideband suppression was achieved at 35 dB.
    • Adjustable angle coupling enabled precise mode manipulation.

    Conclusions:

    • The demonstrated fiber-optic frequency shifter is effective and efficient.
    • The grating acoustic scanner provides precise control over acousto-optic interactions.
    • This technology holds potential for advanced optical signal processing applications.
