چکیده
Error-free all-optical packet switching is demonstrated by use of a multiwavelength mutual injection-locked Fabry-Perot laser diode. A 10-Gbit/s data signal is switched on and off with an extinction ratio of 16.9 dB when an optical control signal is turned off and on with a power difference of only 3 dB.

متن کاملInjection locking suppression of coherence collapse in a diode laser with optical feedback
The effects of injection locking a laser diode which is also subject to varying levels of optical feedback from an external Ž . reflector are investigated. It is found that the locking range of a laser diode with optical feedback LDWOF is reduced relative to that of a solitary laser diode depending on both the increased photon lifetime and the amount of optical feedback. When the LDWOF is locke...
متن کاملOptical bistability in diode-laser amplifiers and injection-locked laser diodes.
Static and dynamic properties of dispersive optical bistability (OH) in semiconductor lasers biased from below to above threshold have been investigated theoretically. The OH result is found to be varied continuously from below to above threshold with its maximum value located just above threshold; this result has been verified experimentally. A much faster switch-off of OH can be expected when...
متن کاملInjection - Locked DFB Laser Diode in Main and Multiple Side Modes
One distributed feedback (DFB) laser diode with main and multiple side modes injection-locked is proposed and demonstrated. DFB laser diode can be successfully injection-locked not only in the main mode but also in different side modes. Besides, the side-mode suppression ratio (SMSR) value of each injection-locked mode is enhanced, in which meaning that a new approach suitable for the use of mu...
متن کاملHigh - Speed 2 2 Switch for Multiwavelength Silicon - Photonic Networks – On - Chip
We report the fabrication and experimental verification of a multiwavelength high-speed 2 2 silicon photonic switch for ultrahigh-bandwidth message routing in optical on-chip networks. The structure employs only two microring resonators in order to implement the bar and cross states of the switch. These states are toggled using an optical pump at 1.5m wavelengths inplane with the waveguide devi...
