Abstract
A method and a system for generating optical waveforms from electrical signals is disclosed. An input electrical signal is sampled to obtain a single channel data which is converted to multi-channel data. The multi-channel data is converted to multi-channel electrical pulses which are input along with a light source output into a switch array containing optical switches to obtain a multi-channel optical waveform made up of a plurality of optical waveforms. These waveforms are superpositioned to generate a stacked optical pulse. Alternatively, the multi-channel data may be converted to a multi-channel optical pulses. The stacked optical pulse may be used to write data to a storage medium.
