Travelling-wave resonant four-wave mixing breaks the limits of cavity-enhanced all-optical wavelength conversion
Wave mixing inside optical resonators, while experiencing a large enhancement of the nonlinear interaction efficiency, suffers from strong bandwidth constraints, preventing its practical exploitation for processing broad-band signals. Here we show that such limits are overcome by the new concept of travelling-wave resonant four-wave mixing (FWM). This approach combines the efficiency enhancemen...
متن کاملAll-optical Wavelength Conversion Based on Four-wave Mixing in Silicon Waveguides
All-optical wavelength conversion is investigated using fourwave mixing in silicon waveguides. The influences of nonlinear losses caused by two-photon absorption (TPA) and TPA-induced free-carrier absorption on the conversion efficiency and phase-matching condition are analyzed. The conversion bandwidth is tempted to enhance by optimizing the waveguide geometry and using the two-pump regime. An...
متن کاملDual-channel all-optical wavelength conversion switching by four-wave mixing.
We report an experimental demonstration of dual-channel all-optical wavelength conversion switching in hot Rb vapor. In a four-level atomic system, a coupling field and a pump field interact with both (87)Rb and (85)Rb isotopes simultaneously and facilitate the generation of two nonlinear signals when the probe field is applied to the corresponding transition. Each nonlinear signal is switched ...
متن کاملFour-Wave Mixing in Photonic Crystal Fibres for Wavelength Conversion in Optical Networks
Four-Wave Mixing is one of the few all-optical techniques which provides fully transparent wavelength conversion. Here, we demonstrate Four-Wave Mixing generation in a band of up to 20 nm centred at the zero dispersion wavelength of a photonic crystal fibre (1560 nm). A stable efficiency around -35 dB is maintained across the band using a pump power of 10 dBm. The experimental results are in go...
متن کاملWavelength conversion in silicon using Raman induced four-wave mixing
Silicon integrated optics has emerged as an attractive technology for realizing passive devices because of the efficient silicon-on-insulator sSOId guiding structures and foundry compatible processing technology. However, silicon is generally perceived to be devoid of active optical properties that are needed to realize more sophisticated optical functions such as, amplification and wavelength ...
