Chromatic dispersion monitoring of 80-Gb/s OTDM data signal via two-photon absorption in a semiconductor microcavity
Bondarczuk, Krzysztof and Maguire, Paul J. and Barry, Liam P. and O'Dowd, John and Guo, Wei Hua and Lynch, Michael and Bradley, Ann Louise and Donegan, John Francis and Folliot, H. (2007) Chromatic dispersion monitoring of 80-Gb/s OTDM data signal via two-photon absorption in a semiconductor microcavity. IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 19 (1). pp. 21-23. ISSN 1041-1135 Full text available as: AbstractIn this letter, a novel method of chromatic dispersion monitoring via two-photon absorption (TPA) is investigated. A specially designed semiconductor microcavity is employed as a TPA detector for monitoring data signals operating at rates up to 80Gb/s. As the microcavity has a wavelength-dependent response, a single device can be used to monitor multiple channels in a multiwavelength optical telecommunication system Download statistics
