Fast dynamic wavelength and path scheduling in a monolithic 8×8 switch

The control plane is implemented for the first time to allow scheduling and power leveling in a monolithic 8×8 space and wavelength selective cross-connect. 16 dynamic data connections are established within 16μs. © 2013 Optical Society of America.

A novel SOA-based crosspoint switch for mixed signal distribution

A 3x3 SOA-based switch is demonstrated for routing both radio-over-fiber and digital signals simultaneously. High extinction ratio digital baseband signals are transmitted and sufficient linearity is found for high performance RF signal distribution. © 2006 Optical Society of America.

Study of high performance re-timing using a 40 Gb/s hybrid-integrated mach-zehnder all-optical regenerator

We experimentally show that a hybrid-integrated Mach-Zehnder switch with a high performance gate profile allows retiming of optical signals with an accuracy of 500-700fs even if the input timing jitter is increased to 3ps. © 2004 Optical Society of America.
