Abstract
Cascaded semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) gates using
polarization multiplexing technique (PMT) is experimentally
demonstrated for the first time. The penalty is smaller than 1 dB
after three SOA gates. Experiment shows that four-wave mixing
(FWM) will also affect the performance of SOA gates when operated
in a multi-channel system.
