Wavelength conversion based on FWM in a HNLF by using a tunable dual-wavelength erbium doped fibre laser source
In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a cost-effective wavelength converter utilising a highly nonlinear fibre (HNLF) and a tunable dual-wavelength fibre laser as the pump source. The proposed system uses only the pump source and a signal probe to generate a partially degenerate four-wave mixi...

| Summary: | In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a cost-effective wavelength converter utilising a highly nonlinear fibre
(HNLF) and a tunable dual-wavelength fibre laser as the pump source. The proposed system uses only the pump
source and a signal probe to generate a partially degenerate four-wave mixing (FWM) effect. An FWM
conversion efficiency of 12 dB is obtained at pump and signal powers at þ13.3 dBm and þ5 dBm, respectively,
and it is predicted that a higher conversion efficiency is possible if a high power dual-wavelength fibre laser source
is used. |
