Interactive phase modulation (Cross phase Modulation, abbreviation XPM [1] , and translated Cross phase modulation When two or more channels use different frequencies to propagate in the fiber at the same time, the nonlinear optical effect caused by the light field itself.
In short, a particular wavelength of light can be Nonlinear The optical Kerr effect affects the radio wave polarization phase of another light wave with different wavelengths.
application Interactive phase modulation In a coherent target beam, another incident beam can be used to make two beams simultaneously propagate in a specific nonlinear medium, changing the phase of the target beam; With this, additional information to be transmitted can be added so that the target beam can transmit signals. This technology has been applied in optical fiber communication technology.
Interactive phase modulation It has been applied to dense wavelength division multiplexing technology. Use intensity modulation and direct detection Interactive phase modulation effect. First, in the coherent target beam, the second incident beam moves simultaneously, and the signal is added by phase modulation. Then, using the dispersion effect of light, the phase modulation is converted into the power difference distribution caused by the signal carried in the target beam. However, the light dispersion effect in the medium may also cause the signal channel to lose some signals, reducing Interactive phase modulation effect.

advantage

1) Nonlinear Pulse Compression
2) Passive mode locking
3) Ultra fast optical switching
4) Demultiplexing of OTDM channels
5) Wavelength conversion of WDM channels

shortcoming

1) It is easy to cause signal crosstalk in different channels in wavelength division modulation. XPM leads to interchannel crosstalk in WDM systems
2) It is easy to cause signal jitter in intensity and timing. It can produce amplitude and timing jitter

Cross phase modulation The light that can be used to act on adding information to the technique in question can be used to modify the coherence of one of the stream phases by interacting with another beam in an appropriate nonlinear medium. This technology is suitable for optical fiber communication.
XPM is one of the most commonly used quantum non burst measurement techniques.
Other beneficial applications of XPM include:
1) Ultrashort pulse compressed by nonlinear optical pulse;
