To ensure that ultra-high-speed serial data signals can be utilised in future optical communication networks, it is indispensable to have all-optical signal processing elements at our disposal. In this paper, the most recent advances in our use of non-linear materials incorporated in different function blocks for high-speed signal processing are reviewed.
All-optical wavelength conversion of a 320 Gb/s line-rate RZ-OOK signal is demonstrated based on four-wave mixing in a 3.6 mm long silicon nanowire. Bit error rate measurements validate the performance within FEC limits.
We report on all-optical wavelength conversion of 160, 320 and 640 Gbit/s line-rate data signals using four-wave mixing in a 3.6 mm long silicon waveguide. Bit error rate measurements validate the performance within FEC limits.
We propose using a hydrogenated amorphous silicon waveguide for ultra-high-speed serial data waveform sampling. 320 Gbit/s serial optical data sampling is experimentally demonstrated with +12 dB intrinsic four wave mixing conversion efficiency.
We demonstrate conversion from 64×10 Gbit/s OTDM to 25 GHz DWDM by time-domain optical Fourier transformation. Using a single silicon nanowire, 40 of 64 OTDM tributaries are simultaneously converted to DWDM channels within FEC limits.
We propose DWDM-OTDM conversion by time-domain optical Fourier transformation. Error-free conversion of a 16×10 Gbit/s 50 GHz-spacing DWDM data signal to a 160 Gbit/s OTDM signal with a 2.1 dB average penalty is demonstrated.
We report on recent results on Terabit per second single channel systems using a record high 1.28 Tbit/s OTDM data rate. We discuss demultiplexing and optical sampling in several different materials as well as transmission.
This paper reviews our recent advances in ultra-high-speed serial optical communications. It describes Tbit/s optical signal processing and various materials allowing for this, as well as network scenarios embracing this technology.
We describe methods to generate and optically signal process Tbaud serial optical data signals. We present sub-systems making serial optical Tbit/s systems compatible with standard Ethernet data for data centre applications, and present Tbit/s results using a.o. silicon nanowires.
Techniques for 640 Gbit/s optical signal processing are described, including demultiplexing, clock recovery, transmission, wavelength conversion, add-drop multiplexing, and timing-jitter tolerance. Demultiplexing at 1.28 Tbit/s is presented, with preliminary results for 1.28 Tbit/s transmission.
Techniques for 640 Gbit/s generation, demultiplexing, clock recovery, add/drop multiplexing, wavelength conversion, transmission, channel identification and timing jitter tolerant switching is described. Various switching materials are explored, such as HNLF, SOA, chalcogenide, and PPLN.
This paper will present recently identified and demonstrated key technologies for ultra-high-speed serial communications. Certain key components such as stabilised highly non-linear fibre switches, periodically poled Lithium Niobate devices and semiconductor optical amplifiers will be described with demonstrations of 640 Gb/s transmission, clock recovery, demultiplexing, add/drop, wavelength conversion...
