ABSTRACT: A photonic ADC system with 20 GHz bandwidth and 20 dB signal-to-noise ratio is demonstrated, using a broadband mode locked laser and dispersive fibre to form a continuous waveform with time-wavelength mapping, and an AWG to channelise.

ABSTRACT: Wavelength multiplexed photonic components are increasingly attractive in the local area network to alleviate the pressure on capacity and reconfigurability. Recent test-bed studies are presented for short reach, high capacity, reconfigurable networks using broadband photonic components. Intelligent control schemes are presented which leverage wavelength multiplexing for low latency and low complexity. Wavelength striped payloads are efficiently routed with high margin through semiconductor amplifier based switches showing routes to low-loss high-connectivity 100 Gb/s networking solutions.

ABSTRACT: This paper reports the implementation of SWIFT, designed to enable testing of novel network architecture for optical interconnects, optical devices, and real world applications. We describe the design and implementation of the testbed using semisynchronous timing and multiple wavelength striping.

ABSTRACT: An 80 GSPS photonic ADC system is demonstrated, using broadband mode-locked lasers (MLL) and dispersive fibre to form a continuous waveform with time-wavelength mapping, and array waveguide gratings (AWG) to channelise. Tests are carried out for RF signals up to 10 GHz.

ABSTRACT: Uncooled 1310-nm DFB lasers are shown for the first time to exhibit ultra-wideband high linearity at both 25°C (1 to 20 GHz: SFDR>103 dBHz<sup>2</sup>3/) and 85°C (1 to 10 GHz: SFDR>90 dBHz<sup>2</sup>3/).

ABSTRACT: This article provides a review of integrated laser and
semiconductor optical amplifier components that have been configured to
provide a variety of all-optical functions such as wavelength
conversion, routing, signal regeneration, and add-drop multiplexing. The
components have been devised so that they can be reliably and simply
used within a multiwavelength network. The article introduces the
components by outlining the current leading techniques for wavelength
conversion using SOAs, namely by way of cross-gain modulation,
cross-phase modulation, and four-wave mixing. The integrated SOA
distributed feedback laser is then shown to provide excellent
regeneration properties, not only overcoming fiber dispersion
limitations but also polarization mode dispersion. Finally, the devices
are shown to make possible a regenerative wavelength switching node
where routing is achieved using a tunable laser to provide regenerative
wavelength conversion followed by an arrayed waveguide router. This
switch shows promise for use in future photonic packet switching
