Abstract

This letter presents an optically controlled, continuously tunable, dispersionless optical delay element in fiber based on a selective wavelength converter using a periodically poled lithium-niobate waveguide with two-pump configuration, dispersion- compensated fiber, and a dispersion compensator. Optical phase information is preserved in this technique, and there is no fundamental limitation on pulsewidth or bit rate. A Continuous optical delay up to 44-ns is shown for 10-Gb/s nonreturn-to-zero applications, which is equal to a 440-bit slot.
