## Abstract We design and fabricate a travelingβwave electroabsorption modulator for RF/optic conversion. The RF gain is measured with a simple RF/optic link. It is related to the optical transfer curve. The input optical power causes the change of the transfer curve so that the RF gain varies acco

Abstract
A linearized optical modulation scheme using a dual parallel electroabsorption modulator (EAM) and an RF 180Β° hybrid junction is proposed. The IMD2 generated by each EAM is suppressed by controlling the dc bias voltage of the EAM, and the IMD3 is suppressed by having a proper input optical power split ratio and an RF 180Β° hybrid junction. Reductions of both the IMD2 and the IMD3 at the same operation voltage were achieved, and a subsequent SFDR enhancement of 29 dB was obtained.βΒ© 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

A simple and low-cost technique is developed to enhance the transmission performance in fiber wireless links. Using a narrowband fiber Bragg grating (FBG), single-sideband modulation is realized by filtering out one sideband, which at the same time increases the modulation depth by suppressing the o
In a recent paper [S. B. Ogale et al., Solid State Commun 89 (1994) 1] we reported that the superconducting transition temperature (T c) is suppressed drastically in YBa2Cu30 7\_ d (YBCO) doped simultaneously with Fe and Zn as compared to an equivalent total doping of Zn or Fe, on the higher side of
