摘要
Optical pulse generation at a 40 GHz repetition rate using a sinusoidally-driven high-modulation-efficiency travelling-wave electroabsorption modulator is reported. Travelling-wave behaviour is demonstrated by comparing the pulse generation in the co- and counter-propagation configurations and confirmed by a theoretical model.
