▎ 摘　　要

We numerically investigate phase-sensitive amplification of a quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) signal in a 35 mu m dispersion engineered silicon-graphene oxide hybrid waveguide. The four-wave mixing efficiency is effectively enhanced by exploiting the ultrahigh Kerr nonlinearity and low loss of graphene oxide in the ultrawide wavelength range. A new structure of dispersion flat silicon-graphene oxide hybrid waveguide is proposed and used to achieve the phase regeneration of a QPSK signal using a dual-conjugated-pump degenerate scheme. The phase-dependent gain and phase-to-phase transfer functions are calculated to analyze the properties of a phase-sensitive amplifier (PSA). The constellation diagrams of the QPSK signal and the error vector magnitude are used to assess the regeneration capacity. The simulation results show that the proposed PSA with a good phase noise squeezing capability has potential applications in all-optical signal processing. (C) 2020 Optical Society of America
