All-optical timing extraction at 40 GHz using a mode-locked figure-eight laser with an SLA

All-optical timing extraction using a figure-eight laser with a semiconductor nonlinearity generates a synchronised 40 GHz output pulse stream which displays lower timing jitter than the input stream. A high contrast ratio recovered clock is observed over a ~200 kHz locking range.
