Generation of a 40 GHz pulse stream by pulse multiplication using a sampled fiber Bragg grating

A sinc-sampled fiber Bragg grating is used to achieve multiplication of the repetition rate of a pulse stream from 10 to 40GHz. The spectral characteristics of the grating ensure that the resultant pulses solitons of 3.4-ps width have the same individual pulse characteristics as those of the input.
