Abstract

We report the experimental demonstration of an all-optical, bias free and error-free (bit-error-rate ~10-12), 10Gbit/s non-return-to-zero (NRZ) to return to-zero (RZ) data format conversion in a 7.5µm diameter III-V microdisk integrated on top of a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide circuit.
