Title
Reversible fiber-optic switched delay module using GRIN lens fiber-optic collimators and ferroelectric liquid crystals
Abstract
A single microbench fiber connectorized compact photonic delay line (PDL) using GRIN lens collimators, 3D polarization optics, and ferroelectric liquid crystal devices is described. The GRIN lens fiber optic (FO) collimators have coupling efficiencies of approximately 0.6 dB for distances of 3 cm. Insertion losses of <7 dB can be measured for both PDL settings. Important GRIN-to-GRIN coupling loss data is also presented. An approach using special design non-quarter pitch FO collimators is suggested for the large GRIN-to-GRIN distances in the PDL.
