Quantum-Dot Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers, Basic Principles, Design Methods, and Optical Characterizations -- Simulation Methods of QD-SOAs -- Techniques toward High Speed Operation of SOAs -- Applications and Functionalities -- Applications of SOA-based Circuits in All-Optical Signal Processing and Switching.
"Nanostructure Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers" reviews all-optical processing methods currently available and presents semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) as a new building block for this purpose. The authors discuss the overcomes of high frequency operation of SOAs and propose a new all-optical pumping method for the implementation of semiconductor optical amplifiers.
