Summary form only given. In this paper, we demonstrate a tunable multiwavelength mode-locked semiconductor laser based on a single-stripe semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA). By actively mode-locking the single-grating-loaded external cavity semiconductor laser system, 20 wavelength channels are simultaneously generated with each wavelength transmitting 12-ps pulses at a 600-MHz rate. A conventional pulse interleaving configuration multiplexes pulse train by eight fold to give a final 5-Gbit/sec pulse rate.
