TL;DR: In this paper, an all-optical clock recovery scheme for return-to-zero data with single and multi-wavelength was proposed based on clock-like pulse generation from an active filter with a multiquantum-well Fabry-Perot semiconductor optical amplifier and amplitude equalization with self-nonlinear polarization switching.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel all-optical microwave filter with high frequency selectivity is proposed and experimentally demonstrated, which is based on a recirculating delay line (RDL) loop in which a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) is followed by a tunable narrowband optical filter and a 1 × 2 10:90 optical coupler.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed and numerically demonstrated a novel scheme of all-optical UWB pulse generation based on parametric processes in cascaded periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) waveguides.

TL;DR: The FP-SOAs based all-optical differential-equation solvers can be easily integrated with other optical components based on InP/InGaAsP materials, such as laser, modulator, photodetector and waveguide, which can motivate the realization of the complicated optical computing on a single integrated chip.

TL;DR: Photonic generation of ultrawideband monocycle and doublet pulses is experimentally demonstrated using a cascaded electroabsorption modulator (EAM) and semiconductor optical amplifier by exploiting a combination of cross-absorption modulation and cross-gain modulation.
