“…Although the principle of wavelength conversion based on nonlinear polarization rotation has already been demonstrated by others [4], [5], we present new results that clearly demonstrate the potential of this concept within a telecommunication systems context. We demonstrate that error-free inverted and noninverted wavelength conversion at data rates up to 10 Gb/s can be realized in a single SOA.…”

“…If a saturating pump beam is coupled into the SOA, the additional birefringence in the SOA leads to a phase difference between the TE and TM modes of the probe signal, causing the polarization of the probe light to be rotated [4], [5]. As a consequence, some probe light can pass through the PBS.…”

“…The whole setup was placed in a box to shield the polarization switch from thermal and mechanical disturbances. When saturating pump pulses were coupled into the SOA, the gain saturation led to a phase difference between the TE and TM modes of the probe signal, causing the polarization of the probe light to be rotated [1], [3]. As a consequence, the power meter could detect some probe light passed through the PBS.…”

“…Signal and the data signal will have, in general, different polarizations. Since the effective refractive index of the transverse-electric and transverse-magnetic modes change differently, they will also experience cross-polarization modulation [10].…”
