Abstract

We have used the 4 × 4 Luttinger–Kohn Hamiltonian to analyse the presence of delta‐strain in quantum well on the polarization properties of semiconductor optical amplifiers. The analysis is performed for a 1.55 μm InGaAsP/InP lattice matched system grown in the [001] direction with and without the electrostatic effects of the carrier charges. The importance of electrostatic effects is indicated. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 35: 227–230, 2002; Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com).

## Abstract We propose an all‐optical switch based on cross‐polarization modulation in a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), operating at 2.5 Gbits/s with an NRZ pseudorandom data sequence. The effect consists of an induced modification of the birefringence and waveguide eigenmodes of an SOA pro

We have performed cross-gain modulation experiments on semiconductor optical amplifiers with 100 fs pump pulses. Setting the pump on the high energy side of the gain results in a complex transient for the CW probe that is situated at gain maximum. An important part of this transient is shown to be d
