Numerical analysis and optimization of a dual-order mode all-optical wavelength converter
A numerical analysis of a dual-order mode (DOMO) wavelength converter has been carried out. We optimize the waveguide dimensions for high speed and compare to a single mode device. We also identify a crosstalk penalty when converting to wavelengths close to the original.
