Abstract

We optimize a proposed multicast parametric synchronous sampling scheme. Two segments of 1 cm high nonlinear spiral photonic crystal fiber are utilized as a nonlinear medium in parametric processors. Meanwhile, a segment of 1.8 km dispersion compensation fiber is used to obtain linear chirped sampling pulses instead of a 5 km single-mode fiber. The experimental results show that a 120 GSa/s equivalent sampling rate, high power of sampling copies, and low variance are obtained.
