In this paper, a silicon waveguide is designed so that by changing its geometry the dispersion curve is controlled. Using the modulation instability based on the four-wave mixing in the anomalous dispersion regime, the tunable wavelength conversion in the infrared region is simulated. This type of waveguide has transmission losses less than 1 dBcm-1 for waves propagated in the infrared region which is much less than those of conventional optical fibers.
Keywords: Tunable wavelength conversion, gain coefficient, silicon waveguide, anomalous dispersion regime, modulation instability.
