Abstract :
64 Gbit/s all-optical multi-demultiplexing with 8 GHz clock recovery by a phase lock loop that uses a travelling-wave laser-diode amplifier is demonstrated. An all-optical nonlinear loop mirror switch is successfully operated by the extracted clock and its performance is evaluated by measuring the bit error rate.
