Titel
Ultrafast gain and phase dynamics in monolithically integrated SLA based Mach-Zehnder interferometers for OTDM applications
Abstract
In this paper we investigate, for the first time, gain and phase dynamics in semiconductor laser amplifier (SLA) based monolithically integrated asymmetric Mach Zehnder interferometers (MZIs) by pump-probe experiments and develop a model to explain the interdependencies of various design relevant parameters. In addition, implications of fast intraband effects for all-optical demultiplexing and add-drop multiplexing using the MZI devices are discussed.
