摘要:
A communications device includes a transmitter device including an optical source configured to generate an optical carrier signal, and a modulator coupled to the optical source and configured to modulate the optical carrier signal with an input signal having a first frequency, an optical waveguide coupled to the transmitter device, and a receiver device coupled to the optical waveguide. The receiver device includes an optical splitter, a first waveguide path coupled to the optical splitter and configured to filter a sideband from the modulated optical carrier signal, a second waveguide path coupled to the optical splitter and configured to generate a selected sideband from selectable sidebands based upon the modulated optical carrier signal, and an optical-to-electrical converter coupled to the first and second waveguide paths and configured to generate an output signal including a replica of the input signal at a second frequency based upon the selected sideband.

摘要:
A filled-core optical fiber (100) spliced to conventional, solid core optical transmission fiber (175) and a related method of making the same are provided. The optical fiber (100) comprises a core region (140), a cladding ring (120) enclosing the core region (120), and an outer cladding layer (160). A fill hole (115) is formed in the optical fiber (100) which extends from an outer sidewall (110) to the core region (140). The fill hole (115) is for introducing optical material (165) into the core region (140). The optical material (165) is introduced into the core region (140) after opposing ends (121, 122) of the optical fiber (100) are spliced to the free ends (176, 176) of conventional, solid core optical transmission fiber (175). The optical material (165) is introduced into core region (140) after splicing to avoid damage to the optical material (165) due to exposure to high temperatures generated during splicing.
