Optical modulation system and optical modulation method

2026

Abstract

Optical modulation method including providing at least one optical device configured for modulating at least one optical electromagnetic wave provided to and transmitted through the at least one optical device, providing the at least one optical signal electromagnetic wave from at least one first light source to the at least one optical device, the at least one optical signal electromagnetic wave having at least one operation wavelength to be modulated by the at least one optical device; providing a photo-excitation electromagnetic wave from the at least one first light source or from at least one second optical source to the at least one optical device at a pump light intensity to displace in wavelength the resonance wavelengths and the resonance dips in the transmission spectrum to optically modulate the transmitted intensity of the at least one optical signal electromagnetic wave at the at least one operation wavelength.

Optical computing

Optical computing or photonic computing uses light waves produced by lasers or incoherent sources for data processing, data storage or data communication for computing. For decades, photons have shown promise to enable a higher bandwidth than the electrons used in conventional computers (see optical fibers). Most research projects focus on replacing current computer components with optical equivalents, resulting in an optical digital computer system processing binary data.

Optical amplifier

An optical amplifier is a device that amplifies an optical signal directly, without the need to first convert it to an electrical signal. An optical amplifier may be thought of as a laser without an optical cavity, or one in which feedback from the cavity is suppressed. Optical amplifiers are important in optical communication and laser physics. They are used as optical repeaters in the long distance fiberoptic cables which carry much of the world's telecommunication links.

Optics

Optics is the branch of physics that studies the behaviour and properties of light, including its interactions with matter and the construction of instruments that use or detect it. Optics usually describes the behaviour of visible, ultraviolet, and infrared light. Because light is an electromagnetic wave, other forms of electromagnetic radiation such as X-rays, microwaves, and radio waves exhibit similar properties.
