High Sensitivity Waveform Measurement of 160 Gbit/s Signal with Optical Sampling using Quasi-Phasematched Mixing in LiNbO_3 Waveguide

摘要

High efficiency (1.7 x 10~(-2) W~(-1)) waveform measurement is experimentally demonstrated using quasi-phasematched mixing in a LiNbO_3 waveguide. A 160 Gbit/s optical waveform is observed with temporal resolution of 3.6 ps.
