Abstract

The invention discloses an all-optical wavelength converter and method based on a conical sulfur optical fiber four-wave mixing effect. The all-optical wavelength converter comprises an optical combiner, conical sulfur glass optical fibers, an optical filter, an optical amplifier and an optical detector, wherein the conical sulfur glass optical fibers serve as a four-wave mixing medium; the nonlinearity of the conical sulfur glass optical fibers can reach about 10000 times that of the conventional optical fibers. The all-optical wavelength converter is simple in structure and low in manufacturing difficulty on the basis of meeting the needs of optical fiber parametric wavelength conversion, and because the conical sulfur glass optical fibers have extremely high nonlinearity, the high requirement on peak light power of an input optical signal is lowered, namely when the peak light power of the input optical signal is relatively low, the conical sulfur glass optical fibers can still generate an obvious four-wave mixing effect, the system requirement can be met by laser power output by an ordinary continuous light laser, and a pulse laser with high peak power is not needed any more. The all-optical wavelength converter disclosed by the invention has the advantages of being simple in structure, low in manufacturing difficulty and applicable to wavelength conversion of continuous optical waves.

Description

AOWC and method based on taper sulfur system optical fiber four-wave mixing effect
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of AOWC, especially relates to a kind of based on taper sulfur system optical fiber four-wave mixing effect The AOWC that answers and method.
Background technology
All optical network be with optical fiber as transmission medium, based on Wavelength routing, by introduce optical cross connect (OXC) and divide Insert multiplexing (OADM) node, the communication network with high flexibility and survivability of foundation.All optical network can make communication network possess more Strong manageability motility, the transparency, compared with traditional communication net and existing optical communication system, it has many advantages, For example:Huge bandwidth can be provided;There is the transmission transparency;There is higher processing speed and the lower bit error rate;Possess Extensibility, reconfigurability;Equipment and the work of huge optical electrical/light conversion is eliminated, the friendship of network entirety can be substantially improved Throw-over degree, improves reliability.
Wavelength convert is the key technology of the output optical signal for the input optical signal of a certain wavelength being converted to another wavelength. Wavelength conversion technology is while have particularly important application in terms of photoswitch, Wavelength routing selection, light exchange.All Optical Wavelength Conversion Device (AOWC:All-optical Wavelength Converter) it is all-optical network, wavelength-division multiplex system (WDM) and full light The important devices of exchange system, are recycling and the reallocation for realizing wavelength, play broadband resource, and improve network system capacity Necessary means.AOWC (AOWC) is referred to without to electric treatment, directly information from a light wavelength conversion Device to another optical wavelength.AOWC is directly realized by light wavelength conversion, can overcome O/E/O wavelength shifter The speed bottle-neck of middle electrical part, transparent low deficiency.
