Abstract
In this letter, we report on a polarization-insensitive,all-optical demulti plexer based on gain-transparent operation of a semiconductor optical ampli fier in an ultrafast nonlinear interferometer (GT-UNI) using polarization d iversity. Error-free demultiplexing from 160 to 10 Gb/s is demonstrated.
