چکیده
A monolithically integrated photocurrent driven wavelength converter is fabricated and characterized. Bit-Error-Rate measurements at 10Gb/s show 1dB power penalties over 32nm with extinction ratios between 8.5-9.5dB. Input power is -11dBm and conversion efficiency is +13dB. ©2005 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (250.5300) Photonic Integrated Circuits; (250.3140) Integrated Optoelectronic Circuits
