Photonic serial-parallel conversion of high-speed OTDM data

We demonstrate full demultiplexing of a single 100-Gb/s optical time-division multiplexed data stream into eight parallel 12.5-Gb/s streams. This is performed using a photonic serial-to-parallel converter based on lithium niobate intensity modulators, and requires no nonlinear optical elements. Erro...

Description
Summary:We demonstrate full demultiplexing of a single 100-Gb/s optical time-division multiplexed data stream into eight parallel 12.5-Gb/s streams. This is performed using a photonic serial-to-parallel converter based on lithium niobate intensity modulators, and requires no nonlinear optical elements. Error-free operation is obtained for each of the eight output channels.
