A novel NRZ‐to‐PRZ converter consisting of an SOA and an AWG is proposed. The parameters are investigated through numerical analysis to optimize its performance. In the experiments, all‐optical clock recovery from NRZ data and NRZ‐to‐RZ format conversion are successfully demonstrated at 10 Gb/s, which further proves that the proposed scheme is applicable. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
