A wavelength conversion based on high nonlinear microstructured fiber is demonstrated. Core diameter and pitch of the microstructured fiber used in this wavelength conversion method are 2.05 μm and 5.0 μm, respectively. Diameter of the air-holes in the fiber cladding is 4.50 μm, the nonlinear coefficient of the microstructured fiber is 112.2 W−1 km−1 and it is 60 times higher than that of a conventional dispersion-shift fiber, the length of the fiber is 100 m. Four-wave-mixing effect is improved in the high nonlinear microstructure fiber and then the efficiency of the wavelength conversion is improved also. 10 Gbps Not-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) modulation format and 10 Gbps Return-to-Zero (RZ) modulation format are converted effectively by our method. This study can provide a new alternative solution for high effective all-light wavelength conversion in high speed optical communication systems with multi-wavelengths and all-light optical networks.
