Optical bistability in axially modulated OmniGuide fibers.
We demonstrate the feasibility of optical bistability in an axially modulated nonlinear OmniGuide fiber through analytical theory and detailed numerical experiments. At 1.55-microm carrier wavelength, the in-fiber devices that we propose can operate with only a few tens of milliwatts of power, can have a nearly instantaneous response and recovery time, and can be shorter than 100 microm.
متن کاملOptical bistability and cutoff solitons in photonic bandgap fibers.
We present detailed theoretical and numerical analysis of certain novel non-linear optical phenomena enabled by photonic bandgap fibers. In particular, we demonstrate the feasibility of optical bistability in an axially modulated nonlinear photonic bandgap fiber through analytical theory and detailed numerical experiments. At 1.55microm carrier wavelength, the in-fiber devices we propose can op...
متن کاملBreaking the glass ceiling: hollow OmniGuide fibers
We argue that OmniGuide fibers, which guide light within a hollow core by concentric multilayer films having the property of omnidirectional reflection, have the potential to lift several physical limitations of silica fibers. We show how the strong confinement in OmniGuide fibers greatly suppresses the properties of the cladding materials: even if highly lossy and nonlinear materials are emplo...
متن کاملDispersion tailoring and compensation by modal interactions in OmniGuide fibers.
We present a method for dispersion-tailoring of OmniGuide and other photonic band-gap guided fibers based on weak interactions ("anticrossings") between the core-guided mode and a mode localized in an intentionally introduced defect of the crystal. Because the core mode can be guided in air and the defect mode in a much higher-index material, we are able to obtain dispersion parameters in exces...
