Monolithic MZI All-Optical Switch with Selective Area MOVPE

We demonstrate a bandgap-engineered dynamic monolithic MZI SOA all-optical switch with wide stripe selective area MOVPE. Compared with other simple laser-EAM integration with other bandgap engineering techniques, it is the largest working device ever achieved. All-optical wavelength conversion was achieved with single SOA all-optical modulation. In all-optical switching with differential phase technique, a 28 ps switching window was successfully demonstrated
