Abstract :
The authors demonstrate the generation of transform-limited optical pulses with low background levels and durations tunable in the range 1-2 ps at readily selectable low base rates of 1-2.5 GHz. The system described is simple, compact and suitable for multiplexing up to 100 Gbit/s per channel
