A Parabolic Waveform Generator Based on the Chirp Characteristics of a Directly Modulated Laser
Due to carrier dynamics, the modulated light field from a directly modulated laser (DML) has an intensity envelope with a certain frequency chirp. When the chirp is linearly mapped into intensity by a frequency discriminator such as an optical filter with a linear edge, the optical field presents a...
