Tunable and selective wavelength conversion using fiber four-wave mixing with two pump lights

Tunable wavelength conversion is described using fiber four-wave mixing. Utilizing two pump lights, a signal light is converted from an arbitrary frequency to another one regardless of the zero-dispersion wavelength of the fiber. Selective conversion is also possible by adjusting one of the pump light frequencies, where one of the multiplexed signals is selectively converted.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
