Abstract

Frequency conversion using highly non-degenerate four-wave mixing is investigated in optically injection-locked InAs/GaAs quantum-dot Fabry-Perot lasers with different ridge waveguide dimensions. Conversion efficiencies up to -16 dB with a large optical signal-to-noise ratios of 36 dB are unveiled. The conversion bandwidth is extended to 4 THz with a quasi-symmetrical response between up- and down-converted signals.
