T. Fjelde et al., 10Gbit/s all-optical logic OR in monolithically integrated interferometricwavelength converter, ELECTR LETT, 36(9), 2000, pp. 813-815
All-optical Boolean OR functionality is demonstrated in an all-active Miche
lson interferometer allowing simple, stable and efficient operation. This i
s the first time, to the authors' knowledge, that the OR functionality is d
emonstrated in an integrated device. Good performance at 10 Gbit/s is obtai
ned with a high extinction ratio of similar to 12.5dB.
