Abstract

Abstract : A report is presented on four‐wave‐mixing‐based all‐optical time‐domain demultiplexing of a 170.8 Gbit/s signal down to 42.7 Gbit/s in a chalcogenide GeAsSe microstructured fibre. The high nonlinearity of the fibre allows error‐free and low power penalty operation with only 56 mW of total input average power.
