This letter discusses an experimental demonstration of a rapidly switching all-optical packet routing system with optical-label switching and all-optical label-swapping capabilities. The optical routing system optically extracts the subcarrier optical-label content, compares it against the forwarding table, makes packet forwarding and label-swapping decisions, and forward the packet to the desired...... hiện toàn bộ

All-optical signal up-conversion for radio-on-fiber applications using cross-gain modulation in semiconductor optical amplifiersIEEE Photonics Technology Letters - - 2002
Y.-K. Seo, C.-S. Choi, W.-Y. Choi
The authors present a novel scheme of up-converting optical intermediate frequency (IF) signals with an optical local oscillator (LO) signal using cross-gain modulation in a semiconductor optical amplifier. This scheme provides high conversion efficiency and is independent of the incident light wavelength and polarization. It can be useful for radio-on-fiber transmission system applications in whi...... hiện toàn bộ

650-mW single lateral mode power from tapered and flared buried ridge laserIEEE Photonics Technology Letters - Tập 14 Số 9 - Trang 1237-1239 - 2002

Very high single lateral mode output powers of 650 mW are obtained from a diode laser with a unique waveguide design. The waveguide flares in the lateral dimension to create a larger spot size on the facet and simultaneously tapers in the transverse dimension to inhibit propagation of higher order lateral modes. These GaAs buried ridge devices are fabricated by selective area epitaxy.

Widely tunable lasers are key components for wavelength division multiplexing fiber optic networks. They reduce cost in sparing, enable dynamic networking applications, and present opportunities for future monolithically integrated wavelength division multiplexing components. The sampled-grating distributed Bragg reflector (SGDBR) laser is ideal for these purposes. The authors present a centered q...... hiện toàn bộ
