【 摘 要 】

A combination of loss properties of Periodic Segmented Waveguides and second-order wavelength conversion processes is shown to exhibit features which allow to realize an adjustable optical power limiter using classical integrated optics technologies. Results of numerical simulations are presented to confirm the viability of the proposed approach using input and output power levels in the range involved in standard optical telecommunication systems.
