متن کاملDemonstration of Monolithically-Integrated InP Widely-Tunable Laser and SOA-MZI Wavelength Converter
The first monolithically integrated widely tunable wavelength converter, consisting of a Sampled-Grating Distributed-Bragg-Reflector laser and a semiconductor optical amplifier-based Mach-Zehnder interferometer, is reported. Static extinction ratios better than 19dB and 13 dB using electrical and optical control, respectively, were measured over a 22nm laser wavelength range.
متن کاملDesigning an Integrated All-Optical Analog to Digital Converter
We present the procedure for designing a high speed and low power all-optical analog to digital converter (AO-ADC), by integrating InGaAsP semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) with InP based photonic crystal (PhC) drop filters. The self-phase modulation in the SOA can shift the frequency of the Gaussian input pulse. The two output PhC based drop filters are designed to appropriately code the f...
