Abstract

Optical switch based on quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifier (QD-SOA) is proved to be more potential in ultra-fast optical processing. And a novel optical switch has been designed to exploit the superiorities. In the QD-SOA simulation model, we also take into account the asynchrony of gain recovery and phase recovery.
