摘要
Highly efficient tunable wavelength conversion based on nondegenerate fiber four-wave mixing is demonstrated. We apply simultaneous phase modulation to the two pump waves so that stimulated Brillouin scattering is suppressed without affecting the generated idler wave. The signal light is converted from an arbitrary wavelength to another arbitrary one within the entire C-band with a conversion efficiency higher than -10 dB.
