The paper deals with the propagation of waves in a silicon waveguide modeled by the tree-wave coupled system of nonlinear Schrödinger equations. The equations are solved numerically by a split-step Fourier method, in view of studying effective wavelength conversion via degenerate four-wave mixing. The emphasis is made on investigating the impact of an initial chirp on the associated spectra. The conversion bandwidth and the conversion efficiency as a function of the signal wavelength are studied.
