Dispersion-free pulse propagation in a negative-index material.
The possibility of controlling the spectral position of the zero group-velocity dispersion point of a negative-index material can be exploited by varying the ratio between the electric and the magnetic plasma frequency to obtain dispersion-free propagation in spectral regions otherwise inaccessible using conventional positive-index materials. Our predictions are confirmed by pulse propagation s...
متن کاملNonlinear pulse propagation in dispersion decreasing fibers
By numerically solving the nonlinear Schrodinger equation, we analyze pulse propagation through dispersion decreasing optical fibers (DDFs) in which the core radius varies along the length of the fiber; this in turn leads to a variation of dispersion as well as mode effective area along the length of the fiber. We calculate an optimum core radius profile required to create a local balance betwe...
متن کاملTransparent anomalous dispersion and superluminal light-pulse propagation at a negative group velocity
Anomalous dispersion cannot occur in a transparent passive medium where electromagnetic radiation is being absorbed at all frequencies, as pointed out by Landau and Lifshitz. Here we show, both theoretically and experimentally, that transparent linear anomalous dispersion can occur when a gain doublet is present. Therefore, a superluminal light-pulse propagation can be observed even at a negati...
متن کاملNegative Group Delay and Pulse Compression in Superluminal Pulse Propagation
We systematically study the pulse advance and pulse compression in light propagation through a transparent, anomalously dispersive medium. Using an Argand diagram, we show that pulse compression is the only form of pulse distortion, while other forms of pulse distortion can be eliminated. Experimentally, we implement a dual-band electronic amplifier to measure the negative pulse group delay and...
متن کاملTime-resolved pulse propagation in a strongly scattering material.
Light transport in macroporous gallium phosphide, perhaps the strongest nonabsorbing scatterer of visible light, is studied using phase-sensitive femtosecond pulse interferometry. Phase statistics are measured at optical wavelengths in both reflection and transmission and compared with theory. The diffusion constant of light is measured in both reflection and transmission as a function of thick...
