Abstract

The present paper describes a microwave mount (up to 40 GHz) with fiber facility inside an optical table for chip tests. Semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) switching times of a chip-on-carrier (unpackaged) SOA were tested with rise times below 100 ps. It could be useful for a variety of SOA and photonic devices tests for electro-optical high-speed applications.
