## Abstract The extinction ratio, switching contrast, and amplitude modulation (AM) characteristics of a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) based Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) as an all‐optical add–drop multiplexer (AO–ADM) are analyzed. It shows that the switching performance can be improve
The feasibility of an all-optical logic AND gate is demonstrated by using a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) based on the Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI). The AND results are numerically analyzed by solving the rate equation of SOA. The operation of the AND logic gate is experimentally demons
The performance of ultrafast all-optical demultiplexer using quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers (QD-SOAs) assisted Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) is analyzed. Through numerical simulations, a set of key parameters are optimized and all-optical demultiplexing from 160/320 Gbit/s to 40 Gb
