Experimental study demonstrates efficient optical modulation using reduced graphene oxide on D-shaped fibers, indicating potential for low-cost all-optical communication systems.
An all-optical modulator of reduced graphene oxide coated D-shaped fiber structure, utilizing a convenient and controllable evanescent-field-induced deposition method, was designed in this study. By using the pump pulse at 980 nm, the signal light at 1550 nm was modulated with the rate of 50 kHz, and the maximum modulation depth of 8 dB was obtained using this device. Furthermore, this kind of modulator features strong mechanical stability, ease of fabrication, low cost and compatibility with optical fiber systems, which implies great potential in photonics applications such as all-optical switching and all-optical communication.
