12、COMMISSION _ CALIBRATION OF WAVELENGTH/OPTICAL FREQUENCY MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENTS Part 3: Optical frequency meters using optical frequency combs FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical com

13、mittees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technic

14、al Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmenta

15、l and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agre

16、ements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use

17、and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promot

18、e international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicat

19、ed in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) A

20、ll users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage

21、or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publica

22、tion. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such

23、 patent rights. The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. In exceptional circumstances, a technical committee may propose the publication of a technical specification when the required support cannot be obtained for the publication of an International Standard,

24、 despite repeated efforts, or the subject is still under technical development or where, for any other reason, there is the future but no immediate possibility of an agreement on an International Standard. Technical specifications are subject to review within three years of publication to decide whe

25、ther they can be transformed into International Standards. IEC/TS 62129-3, which is a technical specification, has been prepared by IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics. PD IEC/TS 62129-3:2014 4 TS 62129-3 IEC:2014(E) The text of this technical specification is based on the following documents:

30、4(E) 5 INTRODUCTION It is essential for realizing fibre optic systems that optical channels are defined in the optical frequency domain, not the wavelength domain. One example, the anchor frequency of the ITU-T grid is 193,1 THz, and the channel spacings of the ITU-T grid are 12,5 GHz, 25 GHz, 50 GH

31、z, and 100 GHz 21. ITU-T has also discussed -interface systems such as “black link” 3. “Black link” includes WDM MUX/DEMUX and a transmission fibre, and provides -interfaces. Especially in DWDM systems (channel spacing 100 GHz), the uncertainty in specifying optical frequency needs to be minimized.

32、To implement future telecom systems, it is expected that optical frequency measurements will need to be extremely precise. For example, to achieve the channel spacing of 25 GHz, signal optical frequency uncertainty (Ufsig) and required measurement uncertainty (Ufmeas) need to be 2 GHz to 200 MHz (Uf

33、sig/ f = 105to 106) and 200 MHz to 2 MHz (Ufmeas / f = 106to 108), respectively. Unfortunately, conventional wavelength meters have measurement uncertainties of 106to 107. The solution is to use optical frequency measurements since measurement uncertainties can be as small as 1015to 1016, which sati

34、sfies the above telecom requirement (Ufmeas / f = 106to 108). Therefore, an optical frequency measurement scheme is necessary for the calibration of future telecom systems. Optical frequency measurement technology is progressing rapidly. Many fundamental papers have examined the use of equally-space

35、d “optical frequency comb” lines (spacing of up to 50 GHz) from an optical frequency comb as a “ruler” for optical frequency measurement 4-15. For example, mode-locked lasers with carrier-envelope phase locked enable ultra-low measurement uncertainties of 1015to 1016. Some examples of practical opti

36、cal frequency combs are shown in Annex B (mode-locked fibre laser + carrier-envelope phase lock, stabilized laser + electro-optical modulator, and stabilized laser + supercontinuum source). Frequency measurements provide more accurate values than interferometric wavelength measurements in air by eli

37、minating the effects of refractive indices. Furthermore, they allow the measurement devices to be significantly smaller than wavelength meters. _ 1Numbers between square brackets refer to the Bibliography.
