Phase shifts of about 101° are obtained at 8.75GHz. The proposed phase shifter can amplify microwave signals and thereby improve transmission performance. Additionally, a similar single sideband modulation can be generated by the phase shifter. Experimental results indicate that the proposed phase shifter can be used in future long-distance microwave transport systems and all optical inverters. © 2009 Optical Society of America.Distributed feedback lasers; Microwaves; Phase shift; Transportation; All optical; Microwave signals; Microwave transport; Radio frequencies; Single sideband modulation; Transmission performance; Phase shifters; article; computer aided design; equipment; equipment design; feedback system; instrumentation; laser; microwave radiation; reproducibility; sensitivity and specificity; telecommunication; Computer-Aided Design; Equipment Design; Equipment Failure Analysis; Feedback; Lasers; Microwaves; Reproducibility of Results; Sensitivity and Specificity; Telecommunicationsjournal article10.1364/OE.17.0076092-s2.0-66549125078
