1000 Km transmission of 40 Gbit/s single channel RZ data over dispersion managed standard (non-dispersion shifted) fibre

Error-free transmission of a single polarization optical time division multiplexed 40 Gbit/s dispersion managed pulse data stream over 1009 km has been achieved in dispersion-compensated standard (non-dispersion shifted) fibre. This distance is twice the previous record at this data rate.

165 km ultra-long Raman fibre laser in the C-band

We present the first experimental demonstration of a Raman fibre laser operation with a resolvable ~0.6 kHz mode spacing operating at 1551nm. Our laser has a record cavity length of 165 km.
