A time-domain model is implemented for gain-clamped semiconductor optical amplifiers (GC-
SOAs) based on a combination of the separated traveling-wave equations and effective …

A detailed theoretical investigation of the input power dynamic range for gain-clamped
semiconductor optical amplifier (GC-SOA) gates at 10 Gb/s is presented. We show that …

Unlike semiconductor lasers that always operate within a narrow band in frequency domain,
semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) normally operate in a much broader area. The …

We present data on the crosstalk characteristics of a gain-clamped semiconductor optical
amplifier with input data on separate wavelength channels, spaced by/spl sim/1 nm. As …

In this work, we present a small-signal analysis which reveals its usefulness to explain the
evolution of the optical frequency responses obtained at the outputs of two-cascaded …

A rate equation model of a gain clamped semiconductor optical amplifier (GCSOA) is
presented. Both a time-domain and a small-signal analysis of those rate equations are used …

We compare the output spectra and data streams of a conventional 1550-nm semiconductor
optical amplifier (SOA) with its gain-clamped (GCSOA) counterpart, in order to assess the …

In this paper, we have implemented and compared two complementary time-domain models
that have been widely used for the simulation of SOAs. One of the key differences between …

Numerical models are indispensable to predict a device performance and grasp the
underlying physics in the operation of optoelectronic devices. For the accurate simulation of …

Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA) is a kind of optical amplifier of which optical gain is
provided by the stimulated emission in semiconductor where the population of free carriers …
