摘　　要：A stable 10 GHz ultrashort pulse generator consisted of an electroabsorption modulator （EAM） and a welldesigned fibre-based pulse compressor is proposed and demonstrated experimentally. The obtained short pulse has high extinction ratio, no pedestal, low timing jitter, and FWHM of only 2.4ps. The excellent performance of multiplexing from 10 GHz to 160 GHz confirms the potential of the generator for applications in 160 Gbit/s optical time-division-multiplexing （OTDM） systems.A stable 10 GHz ultrashort pulse generator consisted of an electroabsorption modulator （EAM） and a welldesigned fibre-based pulse compressor is proposed and demonstrated experimentally.
