  • Abstract
    We experimentally demonstrate for the first time to our best knowledge, the wavelength conversion of 64QAM through four-wave mixing in highly-nonlinear fiber. In order to eliminate the extra nonlinear distortions such as SPM and SBS, it is suggested to optimize the operation condition by monitoring the constellations, rather than BER.
