Abstract

All-Optical Re-amplification and Re-shaping (2R) exploiting spectral shift induced by Self-Phase-Modulation (SPM) in a Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA) is presented. Theoretical model taking into account Carrier Density (CD), Carrier Heating (CH) and Spectral Hole Burning (SHB) is experimentally validated using 3 ps optical pulses.
