Polarization Insensitive Wavelength Conversion by FWM of Multiformat DWDM Signals Using Birefringent PCF

Polarization Insensitive Wavelength Conversion by FWM of Multiformat DWDM Signals Using Birefringent PCF

We demonstrate all-optical wavelength conversion of four channels of polarization scrambled 10 Gb/s dense wavelength division multiplexed signals consisting of both nonreturn-to-zero-ON-OFF-keyed and differential-phase-shift keyed signals using 20 m of nonlinear birefringent photonic crystal fiber (...
