TLDR
In this article, the first sub-nanosecond switching of a four clamped gain optical amplifiers driven by integrated InP HBT drivers is presented, which is the first time for such an array.Abstract:
Summary form only given. Recently, arrays of four clamped gain semiconductor optical amplifiers (CG-SOAs) which were fully packaged have been reported with excellent performances using bulk tensile strained active material. Here we believe we present for the first time subnanosecond switching of such a four CG-SOA array driven by integrated InP HBT drivers.read more

Optical amplifier with damped relaxation oscillation
Sol P. Dijaili,Peter W. Evans +1 more
TL;DR: An optical amplifier with damped relaxation oscillation as discussed by the authors, where a large distance between mirrors in a VLSOA increases damping for the relaxation oscillations, and a feedback loop is used to damped out relaxation oscillators.
