  • 基于自旋反转模型, 对双光注入下1550 nm 垂直腔表面发射半导体激光器(1550 nm-VCSEL)的非线性动力学行为进行了理论分析和数值仿真研究. 结果表明: 当一个中心波长位于1550 nm 的副VCSEL(S-VCSEL)同时受到来自两个主VCSELs (M-VCSELs)的光注入时, 在适当的注入条件下, S-VCSEL可处于双光注入锁定态. 此时, S-VCSEL中的两偏振模式均呈现频率为两注入光频率之差的周期性振荡, 输出的光谱仅包含两个主频率部分, 即光谱具有单边带特征. 因此, 基于双光注入下S-VCSEL的周期性振荡可以获得两个相互正交的光毫米波. 通过调节两个M-VCSELs之间的频率差异可使毫米波频率在较大范围内连续可调, 通过调节系统参量可以控制毫米波功率以及调制深度.

     

    Based on the spin-flip model, the nonlinear dynamics of a 1550 nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (1550 nm-VCSEL) subject to dual-beam optically injection is investigated theoretically. The results show that a slave 1550 nm-VCSEL (S-VCSEL) under the injection of dual-beam output from two master VCSELs (M-VCSELs) can be driven to enter into an injection locking state under suitable injection parameters. In this case, the outputs of both X and Y polarization modes of the S-VCSEL exhibit periodic oscillation whose frequency is equal to the frequency detuning between the two M-VCSELs, and its optical spectrum contains only two main frequency components and possesses a single sideband spectrum structure. As a result, two mutually orthogonal optical millimeter-waves can be obtained based on the periodic oscillation in a VCSEL subject to dual-beam optically injected locking. Through adjusting the frequency detuning between the two M-VCSELs, the frequency of the millimeter-wave can be tuned continuously in a large range, while the power and modulation depth can also be controlled by adjusting the system parameters.
