Abstract

We propose a simple and compact all‐optical on–off switch working at 10 Gb/s. The operation of the switch is based on four‐wave mixing in only 1.9 m of bismuth‐based highly nonlinear fiber. The proposed switch has a fast response time, high ON/OFF switching ratio, and potential to work beyond 10 Gb/s. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The theory of all-fiber optical switch based on stimulated Raman scattering in a fiber loop mirror is described. A model has been developed to predict the transfer function of the loop as a function of a fiber core composition. Such a switch combines optical switching and amplification in a single d
