Journal ArticleDOI
The Roles of Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers in Optical Networks
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the world of telecommunications would not have been the same if optical amplifiers had not been developed, and they propose to use optical fibers instead of wavelength division multiplexing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel measurement technique of α factor in DFB semiconductor lasers by injection locking
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple and accurate method to measure the linewidth enhancement factor a in DFB semiconductor lasers is proposed, based on the principle of external optical injection locking, does not require the knowledge of the absolute value of optical injection level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low-noise and very high-efficiency four-wave mixing in 1.5-mm-long semiconductor optical amplifiers
F. Girardin,J. Eckner,G. Guekos,R. Dall'Ara,Antonio Mecozzi,A. D'Ottavi,Faustino Martelli,S. Scotti,Paolo Spano +8 more
TL;DR: Very high four-wave mixing (FWM) efficiency and signal-to-background ratio (SBR) were obtained in a 1.5mm-long bulk semiconductor optical amplifier as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study of the frequency autocorrelation of the differential group delay in fibers with polarization mode dispersion.
Mark Shtaif,Antonio Mecozzi +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the correlation bandwidth of the differential group delay is comparable with that of the orientation of the PMD vector, and all the most general statistical properties of polarization mode dispersion in long fibers are uniquely determined by the mean DGD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-distance transmission at zero dispersion: combined effect of the Kerr nonlinearity and the noise of the in-line amplifiers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the long-distance transmission in the presence of the Kerr nonlinearity and spontaneous-emission noise of the in-line amplifiers, where the second and higher-order dispersion coefficients were assumed to be zero.
