It is also shown that switching is possible at 10 Gbit/s using the same mechanism.enclockshigh-speed optical techniqueslaser mode lockingoptical bistabilityoptical frequency conversionoptical saturable absorptionoptical switchessemiconductor lasersfast all-optical switchingtwo-section injection-locked semiconductor lasersclocked decisionretimingpulse shapingwavelength conversionbistable semiconductor laserssaturable absorber2.5 Gbit/s5 Gbit/s10 Gbit/s621384journal article
