Problems solved by technology

However, when it comes to such nonlinear optical fibers, in which adjusting the zero-dispersion wavelength is difficult, it is very laborious to manufacture a plurality of different kinds of optical fibers that are different from each other, and these fibers need to have zero-dispersion wavelengths corresponding to the wavelengths of the input light, For example, optical signal processing for wavelength multiplexed transmission of light

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a nonlinear dispersion-shifted optical fiber that produces a nonlinear optical phenomenon with respect to input light, and an optical signal processing device and a wavelength converter respectively utilizing the specific optical fiber. Background technique [0002] Nonlinear optical phenomena that can occur within optical fibers include, for example, four-wave mixing, self-phase modulation, cross-phase modulation, and stimulated Brillouin scattering. If these phenomena occur in the optical fiber, wavelength conversion, phase modulation, scattering, etc. occur, thereby increasing noise components or inhibiting sufficient transmission of input light. Under such circumstances, attempts have been made to exclude as many of these nonlinear optical phenomena as possible in conventional delivery fibers. [0003] In recent years, conventional concepts have been changed to perform wavelength conversion and optical signal proce...
