Micrometer-scale all-optical wavelength converter on silicon.
We demonstrate a highly integrated micrometer-scale low-power wavelength converter based on the free-carrier dispersion effect in silicon. The conversion is achieved through all-optical modulation of a silicon ring resonator by use of modulated cw control light. The ring resonator has a radius of 5 microm and a Q of approximately 10,000. Both inverted and noninverted modulation are achieved at ...
متن کاملEfficient Algorithms for Wavelength Converter Placement in All-optical Networks
In this paper, we consider the optimal converter placement problem for a given number of converters on a path topology in all-optical WDM networks. The placement of converters on a path divides the path into segments. A segment is deened as a set of links between two consecutive converters on a path. We rst introduce and prove that optimal placement considering end-to-end performance is obtaine...
متن کاملMinimum Converter Wavelength Assignment in All-Optical Networks
Finding conflict-free wavelength assignments with a minimum number of required conversions for a routing of the lightpaths is one of the important tasks within the design of all-optical networks. We consider this problem in multi-fiber networks with different types of WDM systems. We give a detailed description of the problem and derive its theoretical complexity. For practical application, we ...
متن کاملAll-optical sampling and magnification based on XPM-induced focusing.
We theoretically and experimentally investigate the design of an all-optical magnification and sampling function free from any active gain medium or additional amplified spontaneous noise emission. The proposed technique is based on the co-propagation of an arbitrary shaped signal together with an orthogonally polarized intense fast sinusoidal beating within a normally dispersive optical fiber....
متن کاملWavelength converter placement under different RWA algorithms in wavelength-routed all-optical networks
Sparse wavelength conversion and appropriate routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) algorithms are the two key factors in improving the blocking performance in wavelength-routed all-optical networks. It has been shown that the optimal placement of a limited number of wavelength converters in an arbitrary mesh network is an NP-complete problem. There have been various heuristic algorithms propo...
