  • Abstract
    We report a new monolithic InP Photonic-Integrated-Circuit (PIC) for all-optical wavelength conversion. The PIC exploits double stage cross-gain-modulation in semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA)s and an integrated DBR laser. We report device characterization and 10 Gb/s wavelength conversion operation.
