  • Abstract
    We demonstrate dynamic grouped-wavelength conversion using multiple quasi-phase-matched LiNbO3 modules and a tunable laser diode array. A high signal-to-noise ratio of larger than 45 dB is obtained for the converted signals. The power penalty of the wavelength converter is confirmed to be less than 0.2 dB.
