On the basis of the tuned four‐wave mixing generated in a tellurite microstructured optical fibre, flexible and efficient wavelength conversion can be realised. The signal at 1494 nm can be converted to any wavelength in the band from 1598 to 1641.5 nm by tuning the pump wavelength. A 27.6 dB maximum idler conversion efficiency has been achieved.
