Abstract :
We propose and demonstrate a novel, differentially operated optically clocked transistor array optoelectronic integrated circuit for high bit-rate and stable generation of asynchronous burst optical packets. With the same circuit, both 10-Gbps and 25-Gbps, 8-bit operation are optimally achieved.
