متن کاملSelf-channeling of ultrashort laser pulses in materials with anomalous dispersion.
The nonlinear dynamics of femtosecond optical pulses propagating in solid media with anomalous group-velocity dispersion (GVD) is investigated. A map fixing the boundaries of collapse or noncollapse regimes for high-power beams versus the relative strength of GVD is first established. Next, from a nonlinear Schrödinger model accounting for higher-order dispersion, self-steepening, and plasma ge...
متن کاملDirect measurement of spectral phase for ultrashort laser pulses.
We present an intuitive pulse characterization method that provides an accurate and direct measurement of the spectral phase of ultrashort laser pulses. The method requires the successive imposition of a set of quadratic spectral phase functions on the pulses while recording the corresponding nonlinear spectra. The second-derivative of the unknown spectral phase can be directly visualized and e...
متن کاملPost-filament self-trapping of ultrashort laser pulses.
Laser filamentation is understood to be self-channeling of intense ultrashort laser pulses achieved when the self-focusing because of the Kerr nonlinearity is balanced by ionization-induced defocusing. Here, we show that, right behind the ionized region of a laser filament, ultrashort laser pulses can couple into a much longer light channel, where a stable self-guiding spatial mode is sustained...
متن کاملEffects of Nonlinear Chirp on the Self-Phase Modulation of Ultrashort Optical Pulses
In this article, we analytically investigate the spectral broadening by self-phase modulation of strongly chirped optical pulses. The dispersion due to the nonlinear optical process is expressed as functions of a linear and a nonlinear initial chirp. As a result, it is found that the third-order dispersion strongly depends on the initial linear chirp and the nonlinearity for self-phase modulation.
