Abstract :
The first demonstration of all-optical demultiplexing of TDM data at 250 Gbit/s is reported. The demultiplexer called a `TOAD´, is compact and requires sub-picojoule switching energy. Crosstalk measurements of pseudorandom data in adjacent, 4 ps-width time slots, exhibit a BER of less than 10-9 with strong jitter immunity
