Abstract

By utilizing the gain compression mechanism in a semiconductor optical amplifier, a wavelength conversion system with distribution to two new wavelengths has been demonstrated. The modulation depths of the output wavelengths were found to vary inversely with the probe input powers. Results of a wavelength conversion and distribution system used to transfer subcarrier multiplexed data to two new wavelengths is presented.
