Because of the small Q-factor of the cavity the semiconductor lasers have an enhanced sensitivity to OFB, strongly influencing their threshold, power, spectral, noise, coherent and other characteristics. The high sensitivity of semiconductor lasers to the back reflected radiation can be used for investigation of internal laser parameters and for solving of applied tasks, such as development of a new generation of sensors for various physical quantities (microdisplacements, microvibrations and velocity of reflecting objects, reflection characteristics of their surface), designing of multistable optical logic elements, etc. In this paper a comparative analysis of the optoelectronic signal (OES) magnitude in injection lasers with a bulk active region and quantum-well lasers with an active region as a quantum well, quantum wire and quantum dot in the approximation of coherent OFB is carried out.","PeriodicalId":301018,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 2001 3rd International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (IEEE Cat.

To facilitate this, the European Community provides opportunities like the 5/sup th/ Framework Programme of EU RTD (5FP). At the same time, European IST industry is striving better to better master technology and business chains that are critical for its competitiveness and growth. However in some countries, notably in Poland, the possibilities created by the European Community are not used as widely as they should be. To counteract this and to promote the take-up of IST technologies a series of dedicated projects has been launched.

An alternative approach, termed wavelength-routed optical burst-switching (WROBS), assumes an obligatory end-to-end acknowledgement, and could guarantee a deterministic delay and proposes the use of dynamically-assigned wavelengths for routing lightpaths. Here packets at the network edge are electronically aggregated into bursts according to their destination and class of service (CoS) in separate buffers on the time-scale of milliseconds, which is a typical forwarding time of IP routers. At these time-scales the reservation of resources along the path before sending the burst is feasible, allowing service guarantees. The two OBS approaches are described in comparison with the conceptually much simpler quasi-static WRONs, together with current analysis and design questions.","PeriodicalId":301018,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 2001 3rd International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (IEEE Cat.
