  • Abstract
    The performance of an integrated quantum dot switch, exhibiting on-chip gain in excess of 15 dB and saturation powers in excess of 12 dBm for both through and cross configurations, is presented. The device allows for the processing of picosecond pulses generated by a QD mode-locked
