THE USE OF POLARIZATION EFFECTS IN SEMICONDUCTOR OPTICAL AMPLIFIERS TO PERFORM ALL-OPTICAL SIGNAL PROCESSING

As the need for higher and higher bandwidths in telecommunication systems continues, it is widely predicted that at some point in the future optical processing will need to be performed all-optically. Several techniques have been proposed to perform such all-optical signal processing. In this paper...
