Abstract :
We have proposed and experimentally demonstrate high-speed clock recovery by employing a novel optoelectronic phase-locked loop. The DC ambiguity caused by the use of optoelectronic phase detector is resolved by balanced photodetection. Low timing jitter of the recovered clock indicates a potential for operation beyond 100 Gb/s using this scheme
