Abstract
The present invention relates a wavelength conversion apparatus capable of making the wavelength of output light constant even when the wavelength of input light is changed. The wavelength conversion apparatus comprises a first wavelength converter and a second wavelength converter which are provided in series between an input terminal and an output terminal. The first wavelength converter generates four-wave mixing by input light and a first pumping light, generates an intermediate light having a new wavelength by the four-wave mixing, and outputs the intermediate light and the input light. The second wavelength converter generates four-wave mixing by the intermediate light and the input light, respectively outputted from the first wavelength converter, and a second pumping light, generates output light having a new wavelength by the four-wave mixing, and outputs the generated output light.
