英文摘要： With the increase of the system bandwidth of optical fiber communication networks, the all-optical clock recovery technology with the ultrahigh processing bandwidth will play an important role in core switching nodes of backbone networks. Silicon photonic functional devices with high integration and low power consumption can be achieved due to the development of the photonic integration technology. By combining the passive filtering and the active oscillation schemes, the optical parametric oscillation in silicon microring resonators (MRR-OPO) is proposed for the all-optical clock recovery: (1) the parametric oscillation theory is established in the resonant structure to optimize the all-optical clock recovery chip; (2) the all-optical clock recovery based on the MRR-OPO is obtained by achieving the mode locking, optimizing the MRR filter, using the parametric feedback technology; (3) the parametric oscillation mechanism and the clock recovery scheme are tested in a 40Gb/s signal transmission system. The MRR-OPO-based all-optical clock recovery with high integration and low cost extends the application field of the MRR device. The new clock recovery device can seamlessly integrate with the silicon photonic switching chip, and will be widely used in optical switching nodes of optical fiber communication networks.
