We demonstrate the integration of low dark current Ge photodetectors with a high performance demultiplexer on a large cross-section SOI waveguide platform. This Si-based WDM receiver can be used for multichannel terabit data transmission.

The burgeoning field of mid-infrared photonics requires a wide range pump and probe sources in order to develop the integrated optical components that are required for applications in medicine, defence and astronomy. Shortwave infrared (SWIR) fibre lasers based on mature fluoride glass optical fibre technology offers high power radiation in the 2.7 μm to 3 μm region; a region that is not covered by the emission from quantum cascade lasers. The Er3+-doped ZBLAN fibre lasers operating on the 4|11/2 → 4|13/2 transition offers high power [1,2] and broad tunability [3–5] in a diode pumpable format with multiple Watt output recently produced between 2.71 μm and 2.88 μm [6].

Sustained research efforts at NASA Langley Research Center during last fifteen years have resulted in a significant advancement in 2-micron diode-pumped, solid-state laser transmitter for wind and carbon dioxide measurement from ground, air and space-borne platform. Solid-state 2-micron laser is a key subsystem for a coherent Doppler lidar that measures the horizontal and vertical wind velocities with high precision and resolution. The same laser, after a few modifications, can also be used in a Differential Absorption Lidar system for measuring atmospheric CO2 concentration profiles. Researchers at NASA Langley Research Center have developed a compact, flight capable, high energy, injection seeded, 2-micron laser transmitter for ground and airborne wind and carbon dioxide measurements. It is capable of producing 250 mJ at 10 Hz by an oscillator and one amplifier. This compact laser transmitter was integrated into a mobile trailer based coherent Doppler wind and CO2 DIAL system and was deployed during field measurement campaigns. This paper will give an overview of 2-micron solid-state laser technology development and discuss results from recent ground-based field measurements.

Multi-core fiber is one of powerful candidate for huge capacity optical link which can be adopted for LANPHY of terabit Ethernet. We characterized inter-core crosstalk depending on bending diameter for 7-core fibers, experimentally and numerically. Heterogeneous layout could suppress crosstalk at larger bending diameter, effectively.
