We present and discuss options for increasing bitrate of TDM-PON beyond 10 Gbps. An overview of experimental results on 25 and 40 Gbps TDM-PON reported in literature is given.
: We review recent high spectral efficiency optical transport experiments at 100 Gb/s and beyond, focusing on single-carrier 16-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (16-QAM) at 112 Gb/s and at 224 G
Recent progresses in long haul transparent optical networks that support high data rates are reviewed.
We demonstrate an 8 by 14 Gbps compatible WDM link based on a single-section semiconductor mode-locked laser, silicon photonics resonant ring modulators and joint channel reamplification with a sem
The success of cellular services, combined with the increased presence of laptop computers and the rapid growth in the number of Internet users, indicates that wireless data should have a very brig
Zone plate alignment is routinely used in X-ray exposure tools and optical step and repeat cameras.
We demonstrate "pseudo-linear" transmission of short pulses in nonzero or high dispersion optical fiber where the dispersion compensation at the end of the fiber span is employed to reconstruct the
The strong potential of intersubband detectors in the field of mid-infrared photodetection places this technology as a relevant alternative to HgCdTe detectors in the race for ultrafast operation.
By selection of appropriate waveguide diffusion parameters, we have fabricated a titanium diffused lithium niobate switch/modulator for lambda=1.32 micron that satisfies the three requirements of a
The capability to obtain concentration depth profiles in insulators at high sputter rates has been used to characterize SiO sub 2, Si sub 3 N sub 4, borophosphosilicate glass (BPSG), and LiNbO sub
