摘要
40 Gbit/s, 2(31)-1 all-optical data regeneration and 40-10 Gbit/s regenerative demultiplexing is demonstrated using a semiconductor nonlinear interferometer incorporating an optimised optical amplifier. Error-free operation is achieved without simultaneous wavelength conversion. Such a device shows great potential for use as a high-speed (greater than or equal to 40 Gbit/s) all-optical 3R regenerator.
