摘要：
Pulse-position modulation may be used to reduce patterning effects arising from gain saturation in all-optical switches employing semiconductor optical amplifiers. We present a novel technique for return-to-zero pulse-position modulation of data suitable for use in optical time-division-multiplexed (OTDM) networks. We demonstrate two methods for all-optical demultiplexing of a pulse-position modulated data stream using an ultrafast nonlinear interferometer. Errorfree operation is obtained for demultiplexing from OTDM data rates as high as 80 Gb/s with control pulse energies of 25 fJ.
