Problems solved by technology

In addition, frequency tunability is an important characteristic of microwave signal sources, but because it is difficult to produce high-Q broadband tunable microwave filters, traditional optoelectronic oscillators only have a frequency tuning range of tens to hundreds of MHz
In addition, high-speed electro-optic modulators and high-Q microwave filters are expensive, and the cost needs to be reduced from the perspective of application

Abstract

The invention discloses a direct modulation distributed feedback semiconductor laser-based photoelectric oscillator. The characteristic that a semiconductor laser has maximum modulation efficiency at relaxation oscillation frequency is utilized, and a distributed feedback semiconductor laser is used for simultaneously realizing photoelectric conversion and photonic microwave filtering functions without an additional electro-optic modulator and an additional narrow-band electric filter. The relaxation oscillation frequency of the laser is tuned by tuning the bias current and the working temperature of the laser to finally realize the large-range frequency tuning of the photoelectric oscillator.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photoelectric oscillators, in particular to a broadband frequency tunable photoelectric oscillator based on direct modulation distributed feedback semiconductor lasers. Background technique [0002] In applications such as satellite communications, radar systems, precision instrumentation, and high-precision measurement, microwave signals with high signal quality and adjustable frequency are often required. The so-called signal quality mainly refers to the short-term frequency stability of the microwave signal, that is, phase noise, and the long-term stability, that is, frequency drift. Traditional high-quality microwave signal sources generally use acoustic energy storage elements (such as quartz crystals) or microwave energy storage elements (such as dielectric cavities) to form resonant cavities. However, these energy storage elements only have a few high-Q resonance points in the low frequency band. ...
