Nonlinear effects in random lasers
Recent numerical and theoretical studies have demonstrated that the modes at threshold of a random laser are in direct correspondance with the resonances of the same system without gain, a feature which is well known in a conventional laser but which was not known until recently for a random laser. This paper presents numerical results, which extend such studies to the multimode regime that tak...
متن کاملPolarization effects and nonlinear switching in fiber figure-eight lasers.
We have developed a novel experimental procedure that allows us to quantify how polarization effects determine the passive mode locking of an optical fiber figure-eight laser. Based on our measurements, we have performed numerical simulations demonstrating that the nonlinear switching within this laser operates in a manner contrary to that described by the conventional theory of passive mode lo...
متن کاملFixed and Random Effects in Nonlinear Models
This paper surveys recently developed approaches to analyzing panel data with nonlinear models. We summarize a number of results on estimation of fixed and random effects models in nonlinear modeling frameworks such as discrete choice, count data, duration, censored data, sample selection, stochastic frontier and, generally, models that are nonlinear both in parameters and variables. We show th...
متن کاملSpeckle experiments in random lasers.
We present measurements of speckle in a random laser. We analyze its first-order statistics and show that, contrary to what might be expected for passive systems, analyses of the intensity distribution P(I) and the speckle spot size do provide information about light transport inside the system. P(I) is used to determine the degree to which an incident probe is amplified by the random laser. Th...
متن کاملDomesticating random lasers
Random lasers are exotic light sources that emit coherent light without any of the confining mirrors that are part of a conventional laser.1, 2 Instead, the light inside a random laser is trapped by multiple scattering in a disordered medium and can thus be efficiently amplified. The downside is that random lasers emit their light at many different frequencies and in many different directions (...
