  • Abstract
    Based on cascaded sum frequency generation and difference frequency generation, a novel broadband multichannel polarisation-insensitive wavelength converter is demonstrated in a periodically poled MgO-doped LiNbO3 waveguide and with two pump waves advantageously located out of the signal band.
