Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for processing an optical signal are disclosed wherein an input optical signal having an amplitude profile is combined by means of Bragg scattering with a first pulsed pump signal having a first waveshape and a second pulsed pump signal having a second waveshape. The combined optical signal is input in a nonlinear optical material for frequency converting the input optical signal thereby obtaining an idler signal wherein the first pulsed pump signal co-propagates with the input optical signal and the second pulsed pump signal co-propagates with the idler signal. The idler signal produced has a peak amplitude proportional to the peak amplitude of the input optical signal and a shape corresponding to the second pump waveshape.
