Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) In all-optical switches that employ the cascade of second harmonic generation and difference frequency mixing in periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) devices, walk-off between the fundamental and second harmonic pulses causes crosstalk of the switch, which limits the switching performance. We numerically analyze characteristics of all-optical ultra-fast retiming switches using the PPLN devices with consideration for the crosstalk effect. It is found that a time offset between the signal and clock pulses at the input port can significantly improve the switching efficiency and the timing-jitter transfer characteristics of the switch.
