Abstract
An optical network component is provided comprising a semiconductor optical amplifier with an input and an output, wherein the input is connected to a light source, wherein the output is connected to an amplitude modulator, wherein the semiconductor optical amplifier converts an amplitude modulated signal from the amplitude modulator to a phase modulated signal and provides the phase modulated signal at its output. Also, a transmitter comprising at least one such optical network component is suggested.
