A Deeply Saturated Differentially-Biased SOA-MZI for 20 Gb/s Burst-Mode NRZ Traffic

A Deeply Saturated Differentially-Biased SOA-MZI for 20 Gb/s Burst-Mode NRZ Traffic

We experimentally demonstrate an optical Burst-Mode Wavelength Converter (BMWC) that simultaneously provides power equalization and wavelength conversion of Non-Return to Zero-On/Off Keying (NRZ-OOK) data and operates up to 20 Gb/s. It employs a balanced, differentially-biased, Semiconductor Optical...
