Optical Phase Erasure and Wavelength Conversion Using Silicon Nonlinear Waveguide With Reverse Biased PIN Junctions

We demonstrate the optical phase erasure and wavelength conversion based on the nontransparency four-wave mixing simultaneously using the integrated silicon waveguide with reverse biased PIN junction. By optimizing the design of the waveguide, a conversion efficiency of -12 dB can be achieved with 3...
