- Abstract
- We investigate the frequency up- and down-conversion efficiency characteristics of millimeter-wave frequency converters based on cascaded semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) - electroabsorptlon modulator (EAM) configuration. We define internal frequency conversion efficiencies and characterize them at 60-GHz as functions of EAM bias, optical LO signal power, and optical IF signal power and wavelength.
