Experimental characterization of phase tuning using fine wavelength offsets in a tunable complex-coefficient optical tapped-delay-line

摘要

We use fine-detuning of pump wavelengths to adjust the tap phases in a complex-coefficient optical tapped-delay-line that utilizes conversion/dispersion-based delays and nonlinear wave mixing. Full 2π phase tuning is demonstrated by detuning the frequency of laser pumps by <20 GHz, which shows close agreement with theory.
