Optical frequency conversion by four-wave mixing in a fiber is considered. If the frequencies and polarizations of the waves are chosen judiciously, four-wave mixing enables the translation of individual and entangled states, without the noise pollution associated with parametric amplification (modulation instability or phase conjugation) and with reduced noise from stimulated Raman scattering.
