A photonic wide-band analog to digital converter

A photonic wide-band analog to digital converter

We describe how a tunable laser and common photonic components can perform the process of analog-to-digital conversion. The all-optical processing yields conversion rates orders of magnitude faster than the fastest electronic processor.
