Performance management is still a major complication for all-optical networks (AONs). In particular, signal quality monitoring is too difficult in AONs as the analogue nature of optical signals means that miscellaneous transmission impairments aggregate and can impact the signal quality enough to reduce the Quality of Service (QoS) without precluding all network services. This results in the continuous monitoring and identification of the impairments becoming challenging in the event of transmission failures. However, a simple and reliable signal quality monitoring method does not exist at present. Despite new methods for performance monitoring having been proposed, no robust standards or techniques exist to date for guaranteeing the QoS in AONs. Therefore, the need for more sophisticated mechanisms that assist managing and assessing the proper function of AONs is highly desirable. In this work we present the design and internal architecture of a hardware-based Monitoring Device Block (MDB) that can be used in some tasks for performance management of AONs.

The value of third order nonlinear optical susceptibility (chi<3>) of ternary and quaternary ZnSe-based mixed crystals was extracted from the standard backward degenerate four wave mixing (DFWM) measurement at 532 nm. The studied crystals were grown by the modified high-pressure Bridgman method. We found that the value of third order nonlinear optical susceptibility (chi<3>) for Zn0.79Be0.21Se is higher than that for Zn0.80Mg0.20Se. We also found that the value of chi<3> for Zn0.83Be0.04Mg0.13Se is located between the values obtained for Zn0.79Be0.21Se and Zn0.80Mg0.20Se.

Packet order in slotted input buffer wavelength routed (IBWR) switches, operating under (i) synchronous optical packet switching (OPS), (ii) scattered wavelength path (SCWP) operational mode and (iii) fixed packet size, can be preserved by using a parallel iterative scheduler, as discussed in reference [1]. The performance achieved is comparable to the ideal output buffering architecture, degrading only for high input loads. The scheduler in [1] maintains packet order among every input fiber-output fiber pair. In virtual circuit-based networks, packet order has to be maintained among packets in the same traffic connection. Maintaining packet sequence among all packets in the same input fiber-output fiber pair is a constraint excessively hard. However, it is commonly used to simplify the scheduler design. This paper studies the performance improvement obtained in the OI-PDBM scheduler, if the ordering constrained is softened, and applied only among packets belonging to the same traffic connection. A GMPLS (generalized multiprotocol label switching) control plane is assumed, so that packet flow is identified by tagging information stored in packet header. A discussion regarding switch scheduler feasibility is also included.

Different approaches to split-step-Fourier-method (SSFM) applied to simulation of signal propagation in wavelength-division-multiplexed (WDM) links are considered in this paper. We propose novel simulation method, which contains two stages: step size optimization is carried out in the initial stage, using two recently proposed methods: local-error method and pre-simulation with signal spectrum averaging; in the second stage conventional SSFM is used, applying optimal steps obtained in the initial stage. Overall time savings reach 50%, depending of simulated system scenario. We called this novel procedure pre-simulated local error S-SSFM (PsLE S-SSFM).

Spontaneous emission of light in semiconductor LEDs produces light that lack fixed-phase dependence; it is a question of incoherent light. However, it was proved that spontaneous emission depends not only on intrinsic property of material but also on the surrounding environment. Association between Quantum Dots (QD) and Photonic Crystals (CP) can have this role and modify characteristics of spontaneous emission and obtain wished results. In this paper we present another way to produce spontaneous emission with new interesting performances to arrive in produce a single photon source which produce indiscernible unique photons. Such sources are useful in quantum cryptography and quantum computing.

Optical Burst Switching (OBS) technology offers a promising solution for the next generation optical Internet. Since, TCP protocol is the most dominant transport protocol for the Internet, it is essential to address the implementation of TCP over the OBS technology. The main consideration in TCP performances over OBS is the interaction between the TCP congestion control mechanism and OBS-specific schemes. Different studies have considered TCP issues in OBS networks. It is noteworthy to note that all developed studies have not considered contention resolution at OBS layer, which may have a significant impact on TCP performances. In this paper, we address the implementation of TCP protocol over a novel OBS network architecture supported by a specific contention resolution scheme based on wavelength conversion, burst segmentation and optical buffering. For sake of better performances, we propose a segment retransmission scheme in which segments lost in case of contention resolution failure are retransmitted at the OBS layer. Also, we develop an analytic model for the mathematical analysis of TCP performances over OBS networks implementing these schemes. Finally, simulation experiments are conducted to validate the proposed approach and evaluate its performances.

In this paper, the accuracy of Coupled Mode Theory (CMT) and Mode Matching (MM) method in estimating the scattering due to geometric perturbations in photonic crystal waveguides is examined. Two CMT formulations are considered: The instantaneous virtual grating (IVG) and the conventional CMT. The two CMT formulations and the MM method are compared against the Finite Difference Frequency Domain (FDFD) combined with the Adjoint Variable (AV) method. The results obtained with the AV/FDFD and MM methods agree very well, proving the validity of the latter for the sensitivity analysis of photonic crystal waveguide structures. It is also deduced that although both CMT formulations lead to almost identical results, they can provide only a first approximation to the perturbation-induced scattering.

We have fabricated microlens-integrated vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) by selective oxidation of composition-graded digital alloy AlGaAs. Microlens-integrated VCSELs with self-aligned structure was fabricated using standard VCSEL processing without additional process steps, due to the simultaneous formation of a microlens and oxide aperture. The output beam from the oxide-buried and oxide-removed AlGaAs microlens-integrated VCSELs has a beam radius of 3.7 mum and 3.5 mum at a distance of about 25 mum and 15 mum, respectively, from the surface of the VCSEL. From the calculation of VCSEL-to-SM fiber coupling efficiency, the oxide-buried lensed-VCSELs exhibited 1-dB axial alignment tolerance range of about 40 mum.

The thin films of undoped oxide indium and doped oxide indium by fluorine and tin were prepared by SPRAY pyrolysis. These layers were deposited on glass substrates from the Indium chloride (InCl3), tin chloride (SnCl2;2H2O) and ammonium fluoride (NH4F).The microstructure, morphological, optical transmittance and chemical composition of these layers were studied by the X ray diffraction (XRD), the scanning electron microscopy(SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and microanalysis (EDX) respectively. A study of luminescence by cathodoluminescence technique and a study of nonlinear susceptibility of the third order by the third harmonic generation (THG) technique of these thin films were carried out. The aim of our study is the optimization of luminescence as well as the non-linear response to a possible application in optoelectronics as transparent conductive electrode or in microelectronics fields.
