Abstract

In optical fiber communication systems, reshaping is crucial for long‐haul transmission and networks due to the accumulated noise and dispersion, which will gradually degrade the signals. In this article, a SOA (Semiconductor Optical Amplifier)‐based interferometer is proposed to realize all‐optical signal reshaping. Such scheme is known as advantageous for operation at high speed, which is analyst in theory. The distorted picosecond optical pulses train with repetition rate of 10 GHz is reshaped successfully in experiments employing this simple interferometer. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract This paper presents the design of a low‐timing‐jitter, stable picosecond optical‐pulse source, which is based on a low‐cost, uncooled Fabry–Perot (FP) semiconductor laser in the gain‐switching operation. The wavelength of the designed laser can be tuned from 1538 to 1554 nm under the co

We have developed a self-seeding system to generate wavelength-tunable optical short pulses with a highly improved sidemode-suppression ratio (SMSR) over a large wavelength-tuning range. The external cavity of the gain-switched Fabry-Pe ´rot laser diode consists of two fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) co
