  • Abstract
    A report is presented on four-wave-mixing-based all-optical time-domain demultiplexing of a 170.8 Gbit/s signal down to 42.7 Gbit/s in a chalcogenide GeAsSe microstructured fibre. The high nonlinearity of the fibre allows error-free and low power penalty operation with only 56 mW of total input average power.
