Concurrent Third-Order Replicas in an Electro-Optical SOA1_SOA-MZI_SOA4 Cascade via Four-Wave Mixing and Cross-Phase and Cross-Gain Modulation

Concurrent up- and down-frequency conversion is central to radio-over-fiber (RoF) and millimeter-wave (MMW) system design. However, existing all-optical mixers based on semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) typically exploit a single nonlinear mechanism, such as four-wave mixin...
