摘要	The four-wave mixing (FWM) effect offers promise to generate or amplify light at wavelengths where achieving substantial gain is challenging, particularly within the mid-infrared (MIR) spectral range. Here, based on the commonly used 340 nm silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform, we experimentally demonstrate high-efficiency and broadband wavelength conversion using the FWM effect in a high-Q silicon microring resonator pumped by a continuous-wave (CW) laser in the 2 mu m waveband. The microring resonator parameters are carefully optimized for effective phase-matching to obtain high conversion efficiency (CE) with broad bandwidth. The loaded quality (Ql) factor of the fabricated microring resonator is measured to be 1.11 x 105, at a resonance wavelength of 1999.3 nm, indicating low propagation losses of 1.68 dB/cm. A maximum CE of -15.57 dB is achieved with a low input pump power of only 4.42 dBm, representing, to our knowledge, the highest on-chip CE demonstrated to date under the CW pump in the MIR range. Furthermore, broadband wavelength conversion can be observed across a 140.4 nm wavelength range with a CE of -19.32 dB, and simulations indicate that the conversion bandwidth is over 400 nm. This work opens great potential in exploiting widely tunable on-chip sources using highefficiency wavelength conversion, particularly leveraging the advantages of the SOI platform in integrated photonics across the 2 mu m MIR range.
