Abstract
We demonstrate an all-fiber wavelength conversion system from the C-band to the wavelength range of 2.30-2.64 µm of the mid-infrared (MIR). A series of nonlinear processes is used to perform this spectral shift in excess of 80 THz; from optical pulses in the C-band, self-phase modulation spectral broadening and offset filtering generate probe pulses in the C- and L-band. In parallel to this, Raman-induced soliton self-frequency shift converts pulses from the C-band into pump pulses in the 2 µm wavelength band. The resulting synchronized probe and pump pulses interact via degenerate four-wave mixing to produce wavelength-converted idler pulses in the MIR. Silica fiber is used for nonlinear processes at wavelengths $ {\lt} 2\;{\unicode{x00B5}{\rm m}}$<2µm whereas chalcogenide glass is used for nonlinear processes at wavelengths $ {\ge} 2\;{\unicode{x00B5}{\rm m}}$≥2µm. This system is a major step toward the development of compact MIR optical sources generated from widespread pump lasers of the C-band.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
