Abstract A semiconductor laser under nonlinear periodone dynamics is demonstrated for both optical frequency conversion and optical modulation format conversion. Such conversions depend solely on the dynamical interaction between the input signal and the injected laser. Only a typical laser is therefore required as the main conversion unit. A wide dynamic range of the input modulation depth is feasible. By adopting different spectral components, different output modulation depths can be obtained. These characteristics make the proposed system flexible and re-configurable.
