Abstract :
We demonstrated a novel carbon-nanotube-deposited PLC waveguide for four-wave-mixing-based wavelength conversion. Tunable wavelength converted 10-Gb/s NRZ signal is achieved with 3-dB power penalty. This is the first demonstration of CNT-technology-based device for integrated photonic applications.
