چکیده
In this thesis, we study all-optical processing techniques based on non-linear semiconductor optical amplifiers for the functionalities of second and third generation optical networks. In particular, devices for all-optical wavelength conversion with regenerative properties have been investigated. The configurations under investigation are based on the non-linear four-wave mixing process which occurs when fields with proper spectral and power arrangement are coupled into the active medium. The performance characteristics of the devices are determined by the properties of the optical amplifier, as well as by the operating conditions like the gain of the optical amplifier, the power levels and the frequency detuning of the pump and the information signal.
