Speed Enhancement of a Single-Mode FP-LD-Based Switch Using the Weak-Lock Technique

A technique called weak-lock (WL) has been proposed and applied to a simple optical on/off switch to increase its working speed from 1 to 12 Gb/s with clear output waveforms, whereas the required injection power is decreased. The switch is based on the injection-locking property of a single-mode Fab...
