Fast optical clock recovery and signal regeneration applications of a monolithic mode locked laser with DBR mirrors and an optical amplifier

We demonstrate optical packet clock recovery with locking in less than 700 ps (25 bits) using a novel device which is compatible with other monolithic components. Regenerative capabilities are analyzed using bit error rate tests. (2 pages)
