Furthermore, the pulse quality of tile recovered cluck is cffcctivcly improved by using a continuous-wave （CW） assist light in the gain region of SOA, through which the amplitude modulation is reduced from 57.2% to 8.47%. This scheme is a promising method for clock recovery from NRZ data in the future all-optical communication networks.展开更多
