OOK generation based on MZI incorporating a pumped nonlinear ring resonators system

In this paper, we present an interesting result of nonlinear light pulse propagation within a Mach-Zehnder Inteferometer (MZI) which can be used to extend the existed on off keying (OOK) techniques. The goal of this paper is OOK generation based on MZI incorporating a pumped nonlinear ring resonators system. We first analyze the principles of a phase modulation scheme using MZI incorporating the triple nonlinear ring resonators, which can be fabricated and used in practical communications. After that, we focus on the recent modulation schemes, where the all-optical on off keying and the phase shift control for phase shaped binary transmission (PSBT) are discussed in details. The novelty of this work is that the nonlinear ring resonators are used incorporating a MZI, where the extended switching generation can be achieved and seen.
