Abstract
Summary form only given. For the first time, an integrated DFB/SOA laser has been shown to operate as an MSSI dispersion compensator via NDFWM with a 10 GHz pulse train and 2.5 Gb/s data. Although the former does show some degradation, it is believed that further optimisation of the device (such as reduced DFB linewidth) will lead to far superior performance.
