Ultrafast non-inverting wavelength conversion by cross-absorption modulation in silicon wire waveguides

We demonstrate all-optical wavelength conversion by means of cross absorption effect induced by two photon absorption (TPA) in submicron sized Si wire waveguides. Optical pulses of 1.6 ps at 1 GHz repetition rate were successfully converted from 1550 nm to 1532 nm. We discuss the performance at high...
