Terahertz technology is increasingly becoming an important part of communication systems such as fiber optic communication, RoF (radio over fiber) and wireless systems. The terahertz carrier wave can be generated by quantum transitions of light. In this study, terahertz wave will be generated using a micro ring resonator (MRR) for wide range of wavelengths in medical and RoF. THz radiation has also been used to differentiate tissues based on the abilities. The spectral information from THz pulses has been used to distinguish different types of soft tissues, such as muscle, fat, and kidney tissues.

We present an integral coupled mode theory (CMT), suited to account for high optical losses, to model ultra-broadband terahertz (THz) waveguide emitters (0.1- 20 THz) based on difference frequency generation (DFG) pumped by femtosecond infrared (IR) optical pulses. This integral model works even in the situation where the DFG occurs between several IR and THz modes. We also present a simplified CMT approximation that reproduces the results of the rigorous integral CMT for situations where the THz generation is mediated through single-IR-mode to single-THz-mode interactions. Using the simplified approach we derive a new expression that incorporates loss effects into the coherence length for optical rectification (OR). The expression that we derived for the coherence length can be adapted to describe other second order nonlinear processes such as second harmonic generation.

Unique applications of Terahertz radiation in various fields such as biology and medical sciences, remote sensing, and chemical detection have motivated researchers to develop compact and coherent sources for this least touched region of electromagnetic spectrum. Of the many techniques for generating terahertz signals, difference-frequency generation (DFG) in various crystals is one of the mostly explored methods. Various phase matching methodologies, including phase matching in bulk crystals based on birefringence, and quasi-phase matching have been proposed for this purpose. Although GaAs has an order of magnitude higher second-order nonlinear coeffcient in comparison with other crystals, it is one of the least employed crystals for DFG due to phase-matching difficulties. First, it does not provide birefringence in the bulk crystal for birefringence phase matching. Second, GaAs quasi-phase matching has been shown only in few works because patterning the nonlinear susceptibilities in semiconductors is not easily achieved. In this thesis, integration of a GaAs optical waveguide and a terahertz waveguide is proposed as a wide-band phase matching technique for DFG to generate high power coherent terahertz radiation. Using waveguides for both optical and terahertz waves allows for tailoring the phase matching and increasing the interaction length to get high conversion efficiency. Using pump wavelengths between 1.5-1.6 um, where low cost and high optical powers are available, we obtained phase matching for terahertz generation in the range of 0-3.5 THz. We exploit the differences between the GaAs dielectric constant in optical and terahertz range, a high second order nonlinear coefficient, and low terahertz absorption. Simulation results show the appropriate behavior of the proposed devices for both optical and terahertz waves. The proposed waveguide phase matching can be useful for other types of devices using similar nonlinear phenomena, such as coherent detection, electro-optic modulation, and ultra-short pulse generation.

The title explain new technique of secured and high capacity optical communication signals generation by using the micro and nano ring resonators. The pulses are known as soliton pulses which are more secured due to having the properties of chaotic and dark soliton signals with ultra short bandwidth. They have high capacity due to the fact that ring resonators are able to generate pulses in the form of solitons in multiples and train form. These pulses generated by ring resonators are suitable in optical communication due to use the compact and integrated rings system, easy to control, flexibility, less loss, application in long distance communication and many other advantages. Using these pulses overcome the problems such as losses during the propagation, long distances, error detection, using many repeaters or amplifiers, undetectable received signals, pulse broadening, overlapping and so on. This book show how to generate soliton pulses using ring resonators in the micro and nano range which can be used in optical communication to improve the transmission technique and quality of received signals in networks such as WiFi and wireless communication.
