All-optical pulse regeneration in an ultrafast nonlinear interferometer with Faraday mirror polarization stabilization

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We demonstrate the folded ultrafast nonlinear interferometer (FUNI) as a 3R all-optical regenerator. Faraday rotation provides inherent polarization stabilization, and the optical fiber nonlinear medium provides ultrafast operation and switching window tunability. We demonstrate 3R regeneration of 10Gbit/s data with 5-pJ pulse switching energy and 4-ps timing-jitter tolerance.
