Abstract
In this paper, we present a theoretical model of an all-optical demultiplexer based on two-photon absorption in a specially designed semiconductor micro-cavity for use in an optical time division multiplexed system. We show that it is possible to achieve error-free demultiplexing of a 250Â Gbit/s OTDM signal (25Â ÃÂ 10Â Gbit/s channels) using a control-to-signal peak pulse power ratios of around 30:1 with a device bandwidth of approximately 30Â GHz.
