Analysis of switching performance of the semiconductor optical amplifier - Mach - Zehnder interferometer based all-optical add / drop multiplexer
The extinction ratio, switching contrast and amplitude modulation (AM) characteristic of a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) based Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) as an all-optical add-drop multiplexer (AO-ADM) were analyzed. The nonzero phase shift in the complementary demultiplexing period l...
