Influence of two-photon absorption on soliton self-frequency shift

Soliton self-frequency shift: Self-similar solutions and their stability.

Ultrashort pulse propagation in fibers is affected by intrapulse Raman scattering (IRS) which causes both a linear frequency downshift and a quadratic displacement of the peak pulse, as functions of the propagation distance. This effect has been known and treated by perturbation methods applied to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation since the period of intense research on soliton propagation. He...

Is two-photon absorption a limitation to dark soliton switching?

It is shown that two-photon absorption does not always place a fundamental limitation on soliton devices: The steering angle, the key characteristic of switching devices based on the propagation of dark spatial solitons, is almost preserved as the intensity of the background wave decays in the presence of weak two-photon absorption.

Enhanced Soliton Self-Frequency Shift in a Longitudinally Varying Taper

The influence of self-absorption on the photoluminescence of thin film CdS demonstrated by two-photon absorption.

By means of two-photon excited photoluminescence, we demonstrate the influence of self-absorption on the emission properties of thin (1.5 microm) film CdS formed by laser ablation. The excitation of the sample is performed with 200 fs pulses at 804 nm (1.54 eV). The photoluminescence spectrum takes the form of a single peak centered at 510 nm (2.43 eV) at 300 K. The spectrum is shifted about 45...
