S. Bigo et al., DUAL-CONTROL NONLINEAR-OPTICAL LOOP MIRRORS FOR ALL-OPTICAL SOLITON SYNCHRONOUS MODULATION, Optics letters, 21(18), 1996, pp. 1463-1465
A novel dual-control configuration of nonlinear loop mirrors is used f
or all-optical soliton synchronous regeneration. simulations show subs
tantial improvement in transmission in this device compared with singl
e-control devices, owing to chirp-free modulation. the absence of chir
p is confirmed experimentally through a spectral analysis of dual-cont
rol modulator. (C) 1996 Optical Society of America.
