Abstract
A monolithic semiconductor ring laser is operated as an all-optical set-reset flip-flop triggered by external optical pulses. Bit-error-rate measurements of set-reset switchings under the injection of a pseudo-random-bit-sequence have been performed, showing reliable operation up to 10 Gb/s.
