We propose and analyze a new scheme for storing and releasing optical pulses comprising an array of weakly coupled semiconductor lasers. By activating and deactivating individual lasers in the array we are able to manipulate optical pulses, trap them for long periods and release them without noticeable distortion. In addition, the proposed scheme can also regenerate and reshape distorted pulses all-optically. Additional applications such as routing, pulse synchronization and true-time-delaying are also presented and discussed.
我们提出并分析了一种用于存储和释放光脉冲的新方案，该方案由一系列弱耦合半导体激光器组成。通过激活和停用阵列中的单个激光器，我们能够操纵光脉冲，长时间捕获它们并在释放时不产生明显失真。此外，所提出的方案还可以全光方式再生和重塑失真的脉冲。还介绍并讨论了诸如路由、脉冲同步和实时延迟等其他应用。
