1 Jun 2022 | | Abstract: | In this Letter, we investigate the feasibility and performance of wavelength
division multiplexed (WDM) optical communications using an integrated
dissipative Kerr soliton micro-comb as the multi-channel laser source. First,
we confirm that soliton microcomb pumped directly by a DFB laser self-injection
locked to the host micro-cavity has sufficiently low frequency and amplitude
noises to encode advanced data formats. Second, perfect soliton crystals are
exploited to boost the power level of each microcomb line, so that they can be
directly used for data modulation excluding pre-amplification. Third, in a
proof-of-concept experiment we demonstrate 7-channel 16-QAM data transmissions
using an integrated perfect soliton microcomb as the laser carriers, excellent
data receiving performances are obtained under various fiber link distances and
amplifier configurations. Our study reveals that fully integrated Kerr soliton
microcombs are viable and advantageous for optical data communications. | | Source: | arXiv, 2206.00256 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
