We demonstrate that travelling-wave four-wave mixing in coupled resonators overcomes the bandwidth limitations of wavelength conversion in single resonators, preserving the efficiency enhancement: 28-dB gain over silicon waveguides of the same length is here achieved.

Abstract

We demonstrate that travelling-wave four-wave mixing in coupled resonators overcomes the bandwidth limitations of wavelength conversion in single resonators, preserving the efficiency enhancement: 28-dB gain over silicon waveguides of the same length is here achieved.
