Bi-directional photonic conversion between 4x10 Gbit/s OTDM and WDM by optical time-gating wavelength interchange

摘要

Novel photonic conversion and reconversion of 40 Gbit/s (4 x 10 Gbit/s) OTDM-to-WDM-to-OTDM by wavelength interchange using optical time-gating of highly chirped supercontinuum and high speed pulse trains are proposed and experimentally demonstrated.
