ABSTRACT:
A nonlinear optical waveguide may be utilized, together with arrayed waveguide grating demultiplexer/multiplexer and thermo-optic phase shifters, to achieve pulse compression of optical pulses. In some embodiments, a relatively compact pulse compressor can be achieved based on integrated planar lightwave circuit.
