چکیده

We demonstrate widely tunable wavelength conversion based on four-wave mixing using a dispersion-shifted bismuth-oxide photonic crystal fiber (Bi-PCF). A 1-meter-long Bi-PCF is used as the nonlinear medium for wavelength conversion of a 10 Gb/s non-return-to-zero (NRZ) signal. A 3- dB working range of the converted signal over 35 nm is obtained with around 1-dB power penalty in the bit-error-rate measurements.

Four-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...

Dispersion-shifted all-solid high index-contrast microstructured optical fiber for nonlinear applications at 1.55 microm.

We report the fabrication of an all-solid highly nonlinear microstructured optical fiber. The structured preform was made by glass extrusion using two types of commercial lead silicate glasses that provide high index-contrast. Effectively single-moded guidance was observed in the fiber at 1.55 microm. The effective nonlinearity and the propagation loss at this wavelength were measured to be 120...

Two Octaves Supercontinuum Generation in Lead-Bismuth Glass Based Photonic Crystal Fiber

In this paper we report a two octave spanning supercontinuum generation in a bandwidth of 700-3000 nm in a single-mode photonic crystal fiber made of lead-bismuth-gallate glass. To our knowledge this is the broadest supercontinuum reported in heavy metal oxide glass based fibers. The fiber was fabricated using an in-house synthesized glass with optimized nonlinear, rheological and transmission ...

Wideband Dispersion Compensation in Hexagonal Lattice Photonic Crystal Fiber

In this paper, a new structure is provided for the dispersion compensating photonic crystal fibers in order to broaden the chromatic dispersion and increase the dispersion compensating capability in a wide wavelength range. In the structure, putting elliptical holes in the first ring of the inner core clad of a dispersion compensating fiber of the hexagonal lattice, increases the wavelength ran...

Suppression of Four Wave Mixing Based on the Pairing Combinations of Differently Linear-Polarized Optical Signals in WDM System

Data transmission in optical systems and increased transmission distance capacity benefit by using optical amplification wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology. The combination of four waves (FWM) is a non-linear effect in the wavelength division multiplex (WDM), when more than two wavelengths of light in a fiber launch will occur. FWM amount depends on the channel, the channel spaci...
