Semiconductor optical amplifier pattern effect suppression for return-to-zero data using an optical delay interferometer. Optical Engineering, 49 (8), 085005/1-085005/4.0091-3286http://hdl.handle.net/11441/56978An optical delay interferometer ODI is employed to suppress the pattern effect manifested on a 10 Gb/s return-to-zero RZ data stream when amplified by a semiconductor optical amplifier SOA operated in deep gain saturation. The experimental results verify the competence of the scheme to confront the problem for this signal format by achieving a far better performance than that with the SOA alone.application/pdfengAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Semiconductor optical amplifierPattern effectReturn-to-zero dataOptical delay interferometerinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://doi.org/10.1117/1.3481137
