    Abstract: There is provides a wavelength conversion apparatus for converting a wavelength of input signal light and for outputting output signal light of the converted wavelength. The apparatus includes a first and a second nonlinear mediums. The first nonlinear medium receives a first input light and outputs a first output light having a wavelength which is longer than that of the first input light, the wavelength being dependent on optical power of the first input light. The second nonlinear medium receives a second input light and a light output by a light source and outputs a second output light having a wavelength dependent on the wavelengths of the second input light and the light. The first output light is input as the second input light to the second nonlinear medium or the second output light is input as the first input light to the first nonlinear medium.

    Abstract: An optical processing device includes: a light source that outputs second light having a first polarization state or a second polarization state in synchronization with the pulse timing of the pulse of first light; a first nonlinear medium that controls the polarization state of the first light pulse in accordance with the polarization state of the second light pulse, using a nonlinear effect; and a separator that outputs the first light pulse from the first nonlinear medium selectively to a first output path or a second output path in accordance with the polarization state controlled by the first nonlinear medium. In this device, the first nonlinear medium uses the nonlinear effect to compensate the level of each first light pulse output selectively to the first output path or the second output path by the separator, with each first light pulse receiving the energy of the second light pulse.

    Abstract: In an optical modulation device, an inverter inverts power of a modulation signal light and generates the inverted modulation signal light. A first nonlinear medium phase-modulates a modulated light by a nonlinear optical effect of the modulation signal light. A second nonlinear medium phase-modulates the modulated light by the nonlinear optical effect of the inverted modulation signal light. An optical interference part controls interference between output light from the first nonlinear medium and that from the second nonlinear medium, and produces the phase-modulated modulated light.
