Abstract
This paper reports 160-Gb/s optical time-division-multiplexed (OTDM) technologies including an all-optical integrated multiplexer (MUX) providing all-channel independent modulation, an all-optical integrated demultiplexer (DEMUX) that offers all-channel simultaneous demultiplexing, and a drift-free phase-locked-loop (PLL)-type clock recovery circuit for ultrahigh-speed OTDM signals. We present the configuration of each technology and the results of experiments on those technologies. Highly stable operation is successfully demonstrated by using a MUX based on periodically-poled lithium niobate (PPLN) hybrid integrated planer lightwave circuit (PLC), a DEMUX based on semiconductor optical amplifier hybrid integrated PLC, and clock recovery circuit based on a PLL with an optical phase modulator and a PPLN waveguide
