Experimental Demonstration of Symmetrical Waveform Generation Based on Amplitude-Only Modulation in a Fiber-Based Temporal Pulse Shaping System

Abstract

We experimentally demonstrate the photonic generation of symmetrical waveforms based on amplitude-only modulation in a fiber-based temporal pulse shaping (TPS) system. A rectangular waveform with a 3-dB width of 18.8 ps and a triangular waveform with a 3-dB width of 6.7 ps are experimentally generated.
