Spontaneous Nonlinear Scattering Processes in Silica Optical Fibers
When light travels in a optical fiber, a fraction of its total power is always scattered to other wavelengths (or polarization) due to material non linearity. Whether that scattering is weak or strong, desirable or not, depends on the situation. One distinguishes (i) scattering stimulated by the presence of a seed wave (at another wavelength or polarization), (ii) spontaneous scattering, and (i...

متن کاملResonance and scattering in microstructured optical fibers.
We present an investigation into the mechanism for guidance of microstructured optical fibers consisting of high-refractive-index cylinders embedded in a low-index background. A new guidance regime is identified in which the fibers' confinement losses depend strongly on wavelength and the positions of the loss minima and maxima depend on the scattering properties of individual cylinders and onl...
متن کاملSpontaneous inelastic Rayleigh scattering in optical fibers.
Rayleigh scattering (RS) adds noise to signals that are transmitted over optical fibers and other optical waveguides. This noise can be the dominant noise source in a range between 10 Hz and 100 kHz from the carrier and can seriously degrade the performance of optical systems that require low close-in noise. Using heterodyne techniques, we demonstrate that the backscattered close-in noise spect...
متن کاملRayleigh scattering in few-mode optical fibers
The extremely low loss of silica fibers has enabled the telecommunication revolution, but single-mode fiber-optic communication systems have been driven to their capacity limits. As a means to overcome this capacity crunch, space-division multiplexing (SDM) using few-mode fibers (FMF) has been proposed and demonstrated. In single-mode optical fibers, Rayleigh scattering serves as the dominant m...
