Wavelength Converters ∗
After a short introduction to the different requirements to and techniques for wavelength conversion, focus is on cross-gain and cross-phase modulation in SOA based converters. Aspects like jitter accumulation, regeneration and conversion to the same wavelength is discussed. It is predicted that jitter accumulation can be minimised while also assuring a high extinction ratio by using a 9–10 dB ...
متن کاملField modulated wavelength converters
We demonstrate 10Gbit/s operation of two different types of monolithic photocurrent driven wavelength converters (PD-WC). These photonic integrated circuits use a Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA)-PIN photodetector receiver to drive an Electro-absorption (EA), or Mach-Zehnder (MZ) modulator that is integrated with a SGDBR tunable laser. We demonstrate improvements in optical bandwidth, inse...
متن کاملEnergy harvesting in silicon wavelength converters.
Nonlinear loss is the central problem in silicon devices that operate using nonlinear optical effects. Wavelength converters are one example of such devices, wherein high optical intensities required for nonlinear interactions cause two-photon absorption and severe free-carrier absorption. In this paper, we report the first demonstration of nonlinear photovoltaic effect in silicon wavelength co...
متن کاملOn the Complexity of Wavelength Converters
In this paper the capabilities of an all{optical network model that supports wavelength conversion are investigated. The model applies to tree{shaped optical networks and was established in 3]. A few wavelength converters are maintained at each non{leaf network node. We present a greedy wavelength routing algorithm that allocates a total bandwidth of w(l) wavelengths to any set of requests of l...
متن کاملDynamically Allocated Wavelength WDM Network Demonstrator
Optical Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology has emerged as the dominant technique used in the realisation of all-optical networks. In wavelength agile networks, by assigning wavelengths to the network transmitters and receivers, it is possible to embed a virtual topology in a physical network [1]. This requires the use of tuneable components (tuneable transmitters and/or receivers...
