Detailed wavelength conversion, extinction ratio regeneration, and signal re-amplification experiments are performed using a monolithically integrated, widely tunable photocurrent driven wavelength converter. A -3.5 dB power penalty is observed in bit error rate measurements at 2.5 Gb/s when the extinction ratio of an incoming signal is regenerated from 4 dB to 11 dB, and the input signal wavelength is switched from 1548 nm to an output wavelength range between 1533 nm and 1553 nm. When the input signal extinction ratio is regenerated from 4 to 11 dB, the wavelength converter provides facet to facet conversion gain of 5 dB, 7.7 dB, and 7.6 dB for conversion from 1548 nm to output wavelengths of 1533, 1545 nm, and 1553 nm.
使用单片集成、宽可调光电流驱动波长转换器进行了详细的波长转换、消光比再生和信号再放大实验。当输入信号的消光比从4 dB再生到11 dB，且输入信号波长从1548 nm切换到1533 nm至1553 nm的输出波长范围时，在2.5 Gb/s的误码率测量中观察到-3.5 dB的功率代价。当输入信号消光比从4再生到11 dB时，对于从1548 nm转换到1533 nm、1545 nm和1553 nm输出波长，波长转换器提供的端面到端面转换增益分别为5 dB、7.7 dB和7.6 dB。
