Abstract
A 100-GHz soliton pulse train, with the potential of very low timing j itter, is generated using soliton compression of the beat signal betwe en two optical carriers. The optical carriers are obtained by opticall y filtering out the third-order sidebands generated from a single DFB laser and a LiNbO3 electro-optic phase modulator driven at 16.9 GHz.
