| Summary: | This thesis focuses on investigation of self phase modulation (SPM) and cross phase modulation (XPM) in semiconductor optical amplifier nonlinear optical loop mirror (SOA-NOLM) and its application in wavelength conversion. An improved architecture for realization the nonlinear effect using SOA is presented. The objective of this research is divided into two major parts: first, the investigation of SPM and XPM in SOA based NOLM and second, its application in wavelength conversion. In this setup, the control pump wavelength is 1540 nm and the signal wavelength is 1555 nm. The simulation setup is based on Sagnac interferometer. The gain level is obtained by setting the injection current of the SOA to 0.2 A. Three different signal repetition rates are used in the simulation; 2.5 Gbs-1, 5 Gbs-1 and 10 Gbs-1. |
