  • Abstract
    Photonic technologies for data processing in the optical domain are expected to play a major role in future high-speed communications. Nonlinear effects in optical fibres have many attractive features and great, but not yet fully explored potential for optical signal processing. Here we provide an overview of our recent advances in developing novel techniques and approaches to all-optical processing based on fibre nonlinearities.
