Abstract :
Reports the first demonstration of all-optical self-clocked demultiplexing of TDM data at 250 Gb/s. The demultiplexer, called a “TOAD”, is compact and requires sub-picojoule switching energy. Cross-talk measurements of pseudorandom data in adjacent, 4 ps-width time slots exhibit a BER of less than 10-9 with strong jitter immunity
