In this paper we consider some of the key components for TDM systems which are being studied in our laboratory. The transmitter consists of either a DFB laser/double-modulator or a mode-locked laser/modulator for RZ systems and a DFB laser/modulator for NRZ systems, respectively. The different data channels are electrically multiplexed in standard TDM and optically multiplexed using fiber delay lines in optical TDM systems, respectively.endistributed feedback laserselectro-optical modulationiii-v semiconductorsindium compoundsintegrated opticsmultiplexing equipmentoptical receiverssemiconductor lasersguided wave devicesvery high bitratesInP technologylaser/modulatoradd/drop multiplexerphotoreceivertdm systemstransmitterdfb laserdouble-modulatormode-locked laserrz systemsnrz systemsdata channelsstandard tdmoptically multiplexedfiber delay linesoptical tdm systemsinp621conference paper
