160 Gbit/s all-optical time-division demultiplexing utilising modified multiple-output OTDM demultiplexer (MOXIC)
The first successful demonstration of error-free simultaneous four-channel-output demultiplexing of 160 Gbit/s OTDM signals is reported. The key is a modification to the authors original multiple-output demultiplexer, MOXIC, that significantly increases the stability of its operation owing to improving on/off extinction ratios of demultiplexed signals.
