Abstract :
We demonstrate an integrated multi-wavelength laser based on semiconductor optical amplifiers, an arrayed waveguide grating, and on-chip Sagnac loop reflectors for signal processing (label generation and all-optical label swapping) of spectral amplitude code labels in packet-switched networks.
