All-Optical Millimeter-Wave Ultrawideband Signal Generation Using a Nonlinear Optical Loop Mirror

We theoretically and experimentally demonstrate a scheme to implement bipolar millimeter-wave (MMW) ultrawideband (UWB) monocycles using a nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM). A 20-GHz optical clock as the probe light and a Gaussian pulse as the pump light are launched into the NOLM for cross-phase...
