Abstract

High average modulated output power over +3 dBm was obtained in 10 Gb/s electro-absorption modulated laser for transmission over 80 km by amplifying the modulated signals through a monolithically integrated semiconductor optical amplifier as a booster amplifier, for the first time to our knowledge.
