本发明涉及的是一种光纤通信技术领域的装置,具体是一种基于嵌套子环对硅基微环谐振腔的波长选择开关。The invention relates to a device in the technical field of optical fiber communication, in particular to a wavelength selective switch based on a nested sub-ring pair silicon-based micro-ring resonant cavity.
背景技术Background technique
伴随着信息时代的高速发展,网络数据总量不断提升,使得基于波分复用技术的光通信网络中需要更加高效的数据管理分配方案。可重构光分插复用单元能够提供灵活的波长通道管理和配置技术,是下一代波分复用光通信网络中的基本组件。波长选择开关是可重构光分插复用单元中的核心器件。通过控制各个波长通道的透射率,波长选择开关能够在不同光网络交换节点之间实现灵活的路由选择。With the rapid development of the information age, the total amount of network data continues to increase, which requires more efficient data management and distribution schemes in optical communication networks based on wavelength division multiplexing technology. The reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexing unit can provide flexible wavelength channel management and configuration technology, and is a basic component in the next-generation wavelength division multiplexing optical communication network. The wavelength selective switch is the core device in the reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexing unit. By controlling the transmittance of each wavelength channel, the wavelength selective switch can realize flexible routing between different optical network switching nodes.
经过对现有技术的文献检索发现,现有的波长选择开关主要分为四大类,分别基于微机电调节系统、液晶光栅、二氧化硅平面光波导线路以及硅基集成光波导。相较于其他三类波长选择开关,基于硅基集成光波导的波长选择开关能够结合成熟的互补金属氧化物半导体CMOS工艺实现大规模片上集成,可大大降低制造开发的成本。同时,硅材料的高折射率和硅波导的强光场束缚特性能够有效降低器件尺寸,更加符合器件小型化的发展趋势。After searching the literature of the prior art, it is found that the existing wavelength selective switches are mainly divided into four categories, which are based on micro-electromechanical adjustment systems, liquid crystal gratings, silicon dioxide planar optical waveguide circuits, and silicon-based integrated optical waveguides. Compared with the other three types of wavelength selective switches, wavelength selective switches based on silicon-based integrated optical waveguides can be combined with mature complementary metal oxide semiconductor CMOS processes to achieve large-scale on-chip integration, which can greatly reduce the cost of manufacturing and development. At the same time, the high refractive index of silicon materials and the strong optical field confinement characteristics of silicon waveguides can effectively reduce the device size, which is more in line with the development trend of device miniaturization.
C.Doerr等人在2011年美国光电子激光学会议CLEO上发表的“Monolithicgridless 1x2wavelength-selective switch in silicon单片集成无栅格1×2硅基波长选择开关”以及Y.Goebuchi等人在2008年Optics Express第16卷第535-548页“Optical cross-connect circuit using hitless wavelength selective switch基于无损波长选择开关的光交叉互连线路”中分别提出了基于级联马赫-曾德干涉器和微环谐振腔的硅基波长选择开关,这两个方案都实现了不同波长通道间的路由选择,但不足之处在于体积较大,整体结构较复杂,且需要多个子单元的精确协调对准,增加了实际调节的难度。C.Doerr et al published "Monolithic gridless 1x2 wavelength-selective switch in silicon monolithic integrated gridless 1x2 silicon-based wavelength selective switch" at the 2011 American Optoelectronics Laser Conference CLEO and Y.Goebuchi et al. in 2008 Optics Express volume 16, pages 535-548, "Optical cross-connect circuit using hitless wavelength selective switch based on lossless wavelength selective switch optical cross-connect interconnection circuit" respectively proposed a cascaded Mach-Zehnder interferometer and a microring resonator The silicon-based wavelength selective switch, both of these two solutions realize the routing selection between different wavelength channels, but the disadvantages are that the volume is large, the overall structure is relatively complicated, and the precise coordination and alignment of multiple subunits is required, which increases the actual Difficulty of adjustment.

The actual prepared silicon-based 1 contains one set of nested sub-ring pairs and two nested sub-ring pairs. The dimensions of the ×2 wavelength selective switches are only 140 μm × 40 μm and 240 μm × 40 μm, respectively. At the same time, since the wavelength selective switch proposed by the present invention selectively splits the original resonant wavelength of a single silicon-based microring resonator, it does not need to be precisely tuned compared to the wavelength selective switch based on cascaded silicon-based microring resonators. The resonance peak of each sub-ring is accurate, so the actual adjustment will be more convenient. In addition, the overall fabrication process of the device is fully compatible with the mature complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor CMOS process, which is suitable for low-cost development and large-scale integration. The feasibility of this scheme has been systematically verified by 10-Gb/s optical non-return-to-zero pseudo-random sequence. Since the 1×2 wavelength selective switch based on the nested sub-ring pair silicon-based microring resonator has many advantages above, the wavelength selective switch with this kind of structure has a good development and application prospect.

This embodiment is implemented on the premise of the technical solution of the present invention, and detailed implementation methods and specific operating procedures are provided, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following implementation example.
实施例1Example 1
如图1所示,本实施例包括:待处理信号发生模块、基于嵌套子环对硅基微环谐振腔的1×2波长选择开关模块以及处理后信号观测与分析模块。其中,待处理信号发生模块与基于嵌套子环对硅基微环谐振腔的1×2波长选择开关模块的输入相连接,处理后信号观测与分析模块与基于嵌套子环对硅基微环谐振腔的1×2波长选择开关模块的输出相连接。As shown in FIG. 1 , this embodiment includes: a signal generation module to be processed, a 1×2 wavelength selective switch module based on a nested sub-ring pair of silicon-based microring resonators, and a processed signal observation and analysis module. Among them, the signal generation module to be processed is connected to the input of the 1×2 wavelength selective switch module based on the nested sub-ring pair silicon-based micro-ring resonator, and the processed signal observation and analysis module is connected to the silicon-based micro-ring resonant cavity based on the nested sub-ring pair. The output of the 1×2 wavelength selective switch module of the ring resonator is connected to each other.
图2中(a)为基于一组嵌套子环对硅基微环谐振腔的1×2波长选择开关的器件结构示意图。通过在单一硅基微环谐振腔中引入嵌套子环对,使得在同一谐振腔中同时存在沿相反方向传播的两个模式。这两个模式之间的相互耦合和作用会使得外环谐振腔的某些波长发生谐振分裂,进而改变原有波长通道的透射率,实现波长通道的开启或者关闭。根据散射矩阵法推导计算,图2中输出端1和输出端2的透射方程分别为:(a) in Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of the device structure of a 1×2 wavelength selective switch based on a group of nested sub-ring pairs of silicon-based microring resonators. By introducing nested sub-ring pairs into a single silicon-based microring resonator, two modes propagating in opposite directions exist simultaneously in the same resonator. The mutual coupling and interaction between these two modes will cause resonance splitting at some wavelengths of the outer ring resonator, thereby changing the transmittance of the original wavelength channel, and realizing the opening or closing of the wavelength channel. According to the derivation and calculation of the scattering matrix method, the transmission equations of output terminal 1 and output terminal 2 in Figure 2 are respectively:
其中:MT、MD分别代表嵌套子环对透射端和反射端的传输方程,可分别表示为: Among them: M T and M D respectively represent the transmission equations of the nested sub-rings to the transmission end and the reflection end, which can be expressed as:

In practice, Ф and value, and then change the position of the split resonance wavelength without moving the outer ring resonance wavelength, so as to realize the routing of different wavelengths. The simulation results show that when the slit width is 0.18 μm, the linear coupling lengths L 1 = 4 μm, L 2 = 2 μm, the nested sub-ring radius R = 10 μm, and the perimeter ratio of the inner and outer rings is equal to 4, the device output 1 and the output The extinction ratios of end 2 are 18dB and 20dB, respectively. The extinction ratio can be further increased by increasing the coupling between the nested sub-ring pairs and the outer ring or by reducing the loss of the device.
