Chirp control of an electroabsorption modulator to be used for regeneration and wavelength conversion at 40 gbit/s in all-optical networking
(2005)Chirp control to produce low or negative values of chirp at the output of an electroabsorption modulator ( EAM) is an important mechanism for reducing the signal degradation due to chromatic dispersion in high- speed ... -
Chirp in a wavelength converter based on a symmetrical-MZI employing SOAs
(2002-08-15)A wavelength converter based on cross-phase modulation using semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) in a symmetrical MZI is modelled. Since the model of the SOAs considers both amplitude and wavelength-dependent parameters ... -
