Resumen
Resumen: Se presentan mediciones de ancho espectral de láseres basados en arreglo de guías de onda tipo grating (Arrayed Waveguide Grating, AWGL), que forman parte de circuitos integrados fotónicos (Photonic Integrated Circuits, PICs, utilizando el método de auto-heterodinaje óptico retardado con modulador de fase electro-óptico. Se demuestra que los láseres AWGL tienen pequeño ancho espectral, en el rango de operación de longitud de onda de 1550 nm; estos valores mínimos potencializan a dicho láser como un dispositivo de gran utilidad en comunicaciones de banda ancha, en sistemas de multiplexado por longitud de onda y en generación de ondas milimétricas para comunicaciones inalámbricas.
Abstract: Linewidth measurements of Arrayed Waveguide Grating (AWG) based lasers in photonic integrated circuits (PICs), using self-heterodyning optical delayed with electro-optic phase modulator, are presented. It is found that AWG lasers have very narrow linewidth, working on the 1,550 nm wavelength range; these minimum values show to those lasers like a useful devices in broadband communications, wavelength division multiplexing systems and generation of carrier wave frecuencies into millimeter wave range for wireless communications.
