168 Gbps error-free demultiplexing with hybrid-integrated symmetric Mach-Zehnder all-optical switch

摘要

The symmetric Mach-Zehnder (SMZ) all-optical switch is quite promising for various types of future high-speed all-optical processing. We have developed a hybrid-integrated SMZ all-optical switch and achieved the error-free demultiplexing of 168 Gbps data pulses.
