Abstract We propose and experimentally demonstrate a multi-frequency optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) based on phase-modulation to intensity-modulation (PM-IM) conversion. A microwave photonic filter (MPF) incorporating an optical fiber Bragg grating Fabry-Perot (FBG-FP) filter and an electrical yttrium iron garnet (YIG) filter in two branches are used to select the oscillation modes of the OEO. By adjusting the wavelength of laser source or the central frequency of YIG filter, two frequencies can be tuned independently within a wide range. The single sideband (SSB) phase noises of the generated frequencies are measured experimentally. Moreover, the OEO shows potential ability to achieve more frequencies oscillation by multiplexing more optical and electrical filters.

An optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) based on series-coupled double recirculating delay lines (SC-DRDLs) is analyzed and experimentally demonstrated. The SC-DRDLs composed by the coupling cascade of two RDLs, which the free spectral range (FSR) is least common multiple of the two RDLs’ FSR, and then the large FSR can be obtained by properly setting the loop lengths of two RDLs. By consociation with the dual loops system between the dual output of the SC-DRDLs and PBS, the high sidemode suppression performance can be achieved. Meantime, the incoherence of the SC-DRDLs can be performed by using an amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) broadband laser source. An experiment is carried out. A microwave signal with high spectral purity, long-term stability, low single-sideband (SSB) phase noise is generated.

Under the “weak phase object” approximation, the component of the electron wave scattered by an object is phase shifted by π/2 with respect to the unscattered component. This phase shift has been confirmed for thin carbon films by many experiments dealing with image contrast and the contrast transfer theory. There is also an additional phase shift which is a function of the atomic number of the scattering atom. This shift is negligible for light atoms such as carbon, but becomes significant for heavy atoms as used for stains for biological specimens. The light elements are imaged as phase objects, while those atoms scattering with a larger phase shift may be imaged as amplitude objects. There is a great deal of interest in determining the complete object wave, i.e., both the phase and amplitude components of the electron wave leaving the object.
