Abstract :
The optical-phase-locked-loop linear phase demodulator is the most critical component for a high dynamic range phase modulated RF/Photonic link. Due to the stringent loop latency requirement, the OPLL should be implemented as a photonic integrated circuit. In this paper we address the design and implementation of an all optical attenuation-counter-propagating (ACP) optical-phase-locked-loop photonic integrated circuit. The preliminary experimental results for this device are also presented.
