Abstract :
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel, simple and all-fiber method for repetition-rate multiplication of picosecond optical pulse trains based on temporal self-imaging, involving temporal phase modulation and dispersion, with an electrically reconfigurable repetition-rate multiplication factor.
