Nonlinear integrated optical resonators for optical fibre data recovery
Abstract:
We apply in simulation a reservoir computer based on evanescently coupled GaAs microrings for real-time compensation of a nonlinear distortion of a 50 Gbaud 16-QAM signal with the launch power up to 14 dBm in a standard single-mode optical fibre. We clearly evidence the crucial role of fast nonlinear response in enabling all-optical signal recovery in real time. With our system we are able to recover from linear and nonlinear distortion caused by a 20 km fibre and 12 dBm launch power below the forward error correction limit.

Raman Spectroscopy Instrumentation: Overview
The monochromatic laser source, typically using visible or near-infrared radiation, generates a highly focused beam of light. This light interacts with the molecules of the sample, scattering some of the light. Liquid and gaseous samples are usually tested in ordinary glass capillaries, while solids can be analyzed as powders packed in capillaries or as potassium...
