Abstract

The present invention provides a demultiplexer for generating a constant four-wave-mixing beam without regard to an input polarization state using a dispersion-shifted fiber that is a nonlinear material with high refractive index. A number of parts in conventional demultiplexer implementations, which are sensitive to input polarization state has been replaced with optical fibers of high polarization mode dispersion.
