Abstract
We generate 10 GHz short pulses from a continuous wave laser at 1.5 um by cascaded intensity and phase modulation, followed by chirp compensation using a single mode fiber. The measured spectral and pulse widths are 0.64 nm and 5.7 ps respectively, resulting in the time-bandwidth product of 0.46.
Keywords
