Abstract:
Lower noise frequency combs obtained from mode-locked semiconductor and mode-locked fiber lasers by cross-phase modulation of output pulses in nonlinear fiber are compared. The importance of low timing jitter for enabling comb-line modulation with 96-Gb/s-DP-16QAM and 64QAM signals is shown.
