The static and dynamic properties of these amplifiers are discussed extensively in comparison to conventional, non quantum-dot based amplifiers, and their unique advantages are elaborated on, such as the fast carrier dynamics and the decoupling of gain and phase dynamics. In addition to diverse amplification scenarios involving single and multiple high symbol rate amplitude and phase-coded data signals, wide-range wavelength conversion as a key functionality for optical signal processing is investigated and discussed in detail. Furthermore, two novel device concepts are developed and demonstrated that have the potential to significantly simplify network architectures, reducing the investment and maintenance costs as well as the energy consumption of future networks. . 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aSemiconductors 606 $aLasers 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aSignal processing 606 $aImage processing 606 $aSpeech processing systems 606 $aSemiconductors$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25150 606 $aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030 606 $aSignal, Image and Speech Processing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24051 615 0$aSemiconductors. 615 0$aLasers. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 0$aSignal processing. 615 0$aImage processing. 615 0$aSpeech processing systems. 615 14$aSemiconductors. 615 24$aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices. 615 24$aSignal, Image and Speech Processing. 676 $a530 700 $aSchmeckebier$b Holger$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0823871 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910135973703321 996 $aQuantum-Dot-Based Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers for O-Band Optical Communication$92275357 997 $aUNINA
