Abstract :
We discuss advanced microwave photonic devices to be used as optical/electrical or electrical/optical power converters. Special emphasis is laid upon high-speed and high-efficiency components providing optical link gain, as well as upon multifunctional and SEED devices leading to a largely simplified link design.
