摘要：
A novel method of all-optical variable-in variable-out wavelength conversions is. for the first time. proposed and demonstrated by using MgO:LiNbO3 quasiphase matched (QPM) waveguides. It is shown that input signal in a wavelength range of 60 nm can be converted to any output signal in a wavelength range of 30 nm with almost the sa-me efficiency (-26 dB with a pump power of -0.5 dBm) by changing device temperature and pump wavelength.
