40Gbit/s pulsewidth-maintained wavelength conversion based on a high-nonlinearity DSF-NOLM
14 September 2000
The authors present results showing that walkoff and dispersion effects are reduced when only 1 km HNL-DSF fibre is used in a nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM). Broadband and pulsewidth-maintained wavelength conversion at 40Gbit/s based on a high-nonlinearity DSF-NOLM is obtained.
