Abstract

The invention provides a device and method for measuring amplitude-frequency characteristics of an electro-optic intensity modulator based on optical sampling, including a mode-locked laser, an electro-optic intensity modulator to be tested, a microwave signal source, a DC voltage source, a low-frequency photodetector, a spectrum analyzer, Computer; the invention uses low-speed optical down-conversion sampling to realize the amplitude-frequency response measurement of the broadband electro-optical intensity modulator. Since the optical down-conversion sampling has the characteristics of low sampling rate, large analog bandwidth and high precision, the measurement system has low-frequency detection and no calibration is required. Advantages of photoelectric detectors; and compared with existing low-frequency detection methods, this measurement system only uses a single microwave signal source, and has a simple structure and low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optoelectronic technology, in particular to a method and device for measuring amplitude-frequency characteristics of a broadband electro-optical intensity modulator based on low-speed optical down-conversion sampling technology. Background technique [0002] With the development of broadband optical fiber communication, microwave photonics and other technologies, the bandwidth and other parameters of the electro-optic intensity modulator, one of the key devices, have also increased. In broadband application systems, the amplitude-frequency characteristic of the intensity modulator mainly refers to the change of half-wave voltage with frequency, which will affect the overall performance of the system. Therefore, the accurate measurement of the half-wave voltage of the intensity modulator is of great significance for performance optimization in system design and characteristic evaluation in device manufacturing.
