title: Broadband regenerative wavelength conversion and multicasting using triple-stage semiconductor-based wavelength converters.
abstract: We demonstrate broadband wavelength conversion with a 320 nm operating wavelength range and channel spacing flexible wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) multicasting from a 1550 nm signal using a triple-stage cascaded semiconductor-optical-amplifier-based wavelength converter.
