Multi-Functional R-EAM-SOA for 10-Gb/s WDM Access
01 January 2011
We report the triple-functionality at 10-Gb/s of an integrated R-EAM-SOA, including modulation, detection and noise-mitigated 2R optical signal regeneration. The obtained results demonstrate its high potential for a multi-operation device in colorless WDM access networks. ©2011 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (230.0230) Optical devices; (060.0060) Fiber optics and optical communications; (060.4250) Networks
