Abstract

By using two orthogonally‐polarized pump beams, an over 10.66 THz tuning range wavelength converter is demonstrated with uniform conversion efficiency and equalized signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) through four‐wave mixing in semiconductor optical amplifier. The pumping‐beam effects on both conversion efficiency and SNR of the converted signals are investigated. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
