40 Gbps WDM Systems using super-Gaussian RZ pulses have been studied by numerical simulation to optimize their performance. The assumption of standard single mode fiber is valid when existing WDM systems are required to upgrade their performance to 40Gbps. It is shown that the standard single mode fiber can transmit optical signals over 720 km (Q > 10) by optimizing optical and electrical filter characteristics at the receiver and by compensation of dispersion. However, it is also shown that ${\pm}0.3%$ dispersion compensation tolerance per span (80 km) could prohibit transmitting over 320km (Q > 10). In addition, a duty cycle of less than 0.4 degrades system performance significantly.

Inception and propagation of electrical tree and properties of partial discharge(PD) pulses accompanying with tree in low density polyethylene were discussed. We observed the characteristics of process of electrical tree by using optical microscope and investigated the statistical characteristics of the PD pulses by analyzing PD quantities and distribution patterns. The PD pulses were analyzed by q-n, $\phi$-n and $\phi$-q distribution. The statistical operators used were skewness(s), kurtosis(k) and average phase angle. The skewness and average discharge phase angle of PD pulses increased as the Propagation of tree. The kurtosis was about 1.8 at the Inception of tree, but It increased as the propagation of tree.

This article investigates numerically the carrier-phonon interactions in thin gallium arsenide (GaAs) film structures irradiated by subpicosecond laser pulses to figure out the role of several recombination processes on the energy transport during laser pulses and to examine the effects of laser fluences and pulses on non-equilibrium energy transfer characteristics in thin film structures. The self-consistent hydrodynamic equations derived from the Boltzmann transport equations are established for carriers and two different types of phonons, i.e., acoustic phonons and longitudinal optical (LO) phonons. From the results, it is found that the two-peak structure of carrier temperatures depends mainly on the pulse durations, laser fluences, and nonradiative recombination processes, two different phonons are in nonequilibrium state within such lagging times, and this lagging effect can be neglected for longer pulses. Finally, at the initial stage of laser irradiation, SRH recombination rates increases sufficiently because the abrupt increase in carrier number density no longer permits Auger recombination to be activated. For thin GaAs film structures, it is thus seen that Auger recombination is negligible even at high temperature during laser irradiation.

A Second Harmonic Generation Frequency Resolved Optical Gating(SHG FROG) system was developed. Its performance test shows that it is capable of accurately measuring the temporal evolution of the electric field, both amplitude and phase, of femtosecond light pulses. For the retrieval of the temporal evolution of light pulses from their spectrograms obtained by using the FROG system, Principal Components Generalized Projection(PCGP) algorithm is used and in addition we used additional constraints of second-harmonic spectrum, marginals in frequency and time-delay of the spectrogram. Such modification of the software brings about significant improvement in speed and stability of the pulse retrieval process.
