The filter is based on a fiber Bragg grating asymmetrically located in a Sagnac loop. Two filters with four band-passes and five band-passes, respectively, were fabricated and applied to an erbiumdoped fiber ring laser. Stable four-wavelength and five-wavelength laser operations have been demonstrated.展开更多

The custom-made FBG is designed and synthesized using discrete layer-peeling algorithm. It is shown that such a FBG can replace the combination of interferometer and the cascaded filter that are invariably employed together in the reported schemes for RZ-OOK to NRZ-OOK format conversion. Simulation results show that the input 20-Gb/s RZ-OOK signals with different duty cycles can be converted into NRZ-OOK signals with high Q-factor.展开更多
