The feasibility of a survivable all-optical transport network over standard single-mode fibre between eight major European cities is investigated. The chosen topology is intended to ensure survivability after a link or a node failure. The maximum transmiss ...
LP01-LP02 mode converters based on UV-written intracore gratings have been fabricated for chromatic-dispersion compensation. The mode converters operate in transmission at wavelengths near 1550 nm with spectral bandwidths of 14-25 nm and coupling efficienc ...
A new optical local area network that combines dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) techniques and coherent transmission benefits is presented. A new multichannel protocol is specified based on Ethernet, using WDM to carry multiple channels on a si ...
Recent experiments on a 100 GHz quasioptical gyrotron have shown that for a large resonator setup [Phys. Fluids B 2, 1654 (1990)] the observed frequency up-shift between the starting current and a current of 10 A corresponds to a shift of 4-5 longitudinal ...
Thermo-optical and electro-optical (plasma dispersion) effects for silicon based integrated optical modulators are becoming attractive and effective solutions for telecommunications applications such as switching for programmable optical add-drop multiplex ...
