“…By the middle of the 1990s, it was very clear that wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) is a very competitive way to upgrade for higher transmission capacity. Moreover, it became obvious that WDM networks with all optical cross connects will be needed for efficient transport of information, e.g., [5]- [7]. Wavelength conversion-translation within the network or at its interfaces is needed for efficient dynamic transport reconfiguration, high-level restoration, and utilization of the fiber bandwidth [8], [9].…”

Abstract-Semiconductor optical amplifiers are useful building blocks for all-optical gates as wavelength converters and OTDM demultiplexers. This paper reviews the progress from simple gates using cross-gain modulation and four-wave mixing to the integrated interferometric gates using cross-phase modulation. These gates are very efficient for high-speed signal processing and will open up interesting new areas, such as all-optical regeneration and high-speed all-optical logic functions.Index Terms-Add/drop multiplexer, optical gate, optical processing, semiconductor optical amplifier, wavelength converter.
