Abstract

All-optical modulation at telecommunication wavelength is theoretically studied and simulated by using the gain modulation effect in side mode injection locked multi-mode Fabry-Pérot laser diode (FP-LD). Research results show that the output probe signal with modulation depth of about 8 dB can be achieved in the end of the device, and the corresponding response time is in the picosecond regime. In addition, the properties of outcome signal are strongly dependent on the peak level of input controlling signal, operation speed, and frequency detuning between injection signal and probe wave.
