چکیده
We present the design and experimental characterization of a monolithic optical time-division multiplexer (MUX) for 160 Gbit/s operation based on periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) waveguides. Its key figures of merit agree well with theoretical predictions and meet or exceed those of a previously demonstrated PPLN-planar-light-wave-circuit hybrid MUX. The monolithic design has a simpler layout and higher efficiency while keeping the cross talk low.

Introduction: An add-drop multiplexer (ADM) is one of the key elements in optical time division multiplexed (OTDM) networks. Various methods of performing OTDM add-drop have been demonstrated. Recently add-drop operation at 16 10 Gbit=s has been demonstrated with the use of a gain transparent ultrafast nonlinear interferometer (GT-UNI) [1] switch and at 4 40 Gbit=s with travelling-wave electroa...

This paper presents large capacity switching systems for a local network using the broadcast-and-select (B&S) architecture. The B&S switching system, based on optical time-division multiplexing (OTDM), can provide several hundreds of Gbit/s by using a nonlinear optical switch as the timechannel selector. Moreover, the combination of OTDM and wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) can realize th...
