RESUMO
In this work, a 10-wavelength, polarization-multiplexed, monolithically integrated InP coherent QPSK transmitter PIC is demonstrated to operate at 112 Gb/sec per wavelength and total chip superchannel bandwidth of 1.12 Tb/s. This demonstration suggests that increasing data capacity to multi-Tb/s per chip is possible and likely in the future.
RESUMO
We report tunable fractional delays of 250% for 700 fs pulses propagating in a 1.55 mum semiconductor optical amplifier at room temperature. This large fractional delay is attributed to a spectral hole created by the propagating pulses for pulses with duration shorter than the carrier heating relaxation time. Delay can be tuned electrically by adjusting the current with low amplitude variation across the tuning range.
RESUMO
We present a novel scheme to increase the THz-bandwidth fast light effect in semiconductor optical amplifiers and increase the number of advanced pulses. By introducing a linear chirp to the input pulses before the SOA and recompressing at the output with an opposite chirp, the advance-bandwidth product reached 3.5 at room temperature, 1.55 microm wavelength. This is the largest number reported, to the best of our knowledge, for a semiconductor slow/fast light device.
