    Abstract: An optical transmitter includes a modulator, a dispersion adjustment module, and an optical amplifier. The optical transmitter is configured to transmit optical pulses over a free-space optical communication channel. The modulator is configured to produce an optical carrier that is amplitude and/or phase modulated by data. The dispersion adjustment module is connected between the modulator and the amplifier and is configured to substantially change temporal widths of optical pulses received from the modulator by changing dispersions of the received optical pulses.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes one or more optical couplers, an optical medium, and an optical pump source. The optical medium behaves as a negative refractive index material over a frequency range. The one or more optical couplers are configured to provide first and second optical inputs to the optical medium and to provide an optical output from the optical medium. The optical pump source is coupled by one of the one or more optical couplers to deliver pump light to the optical medium.

    Abstract: A polarization-diverse optical amplifier includes a polarization-sensitive optically active medium (14) and a polarization splitter (12). The polarization splitter is configured to receive input light, to direct a first polarization component of the received input light to a first optical path segment, and to direct a second polarization component of the received input light to a separate second optical path segment. The active medium has first and second optical ports. The first optical port is at an end of the first optical path segment. The second port is at an end of the second optical path segment. The active medium outputs amplified light from one of the ports in response to receiving the input light at the other of the ports. In a preferred embodiment, the active medium has an internal optical axis, and the polarizations of the first and second components are oriented relative to that axis so that amplification is enhanced. The two optical path segments may include polarization-maintaining optical waveguides.
