Optical transient waveform monitoring based on cross-gain modulation in semiconductor optical amplifier
【摘要】 An all-optical transient waveform equivalent time sampling system based on cross-gain modulation(XGM) in semiconductor optical amplifier(SOA) is presented.A noisy SOA dynamic model and PIN equivalent circuit function are employed for system evaluating.The results show this SOA-XGM sampler with subtracting postprocessing can achieve picosecond sampling window.The shape of sampling window can be adjusted by SOA bias current and amplitude of control pulse.Compared with amplified spontaneous emission(ASE) noise of SOA and thermal noise in PIN,the jitter of sampling control pulse causes most sampling error.Simulations show that this SOA-XGM sampler can be a capable candidate for transient waveform sampling.
