Polarization Changes in Optical Fibers induced by Self-Phase Modulation and Cross-Phase Modulation in Conjunction with Birefrigence
Polarization dependence of various fiber effects affecting signal quality in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems has become a major field of research activities. Polarization– mode dispersion (PMD) and polarization–dependent loss (PDL) are quite well understood today, but there are still major open questions with respect to the interaction with nonlinear fiber effects, although the p...
متن کاملSelf-phase modulation and optical pulse compression influenced by stimulated Raman scattering in fibers
We have investigated experimentally the influence of stimulated Raman scattering, under conditions of pulse walkoff, on the propagation of mode-locked 1.06-,um pulses in single-mode, polarization-preserving fibers and on their subsequent pulse compression. Intense stimulated Raman scattering preferentially depletes (and steepens) the leading edge of 1.0 -,4m pump pulses and clamps the pump puls...
متن کاملSelf-Phase Modulation in Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers
This paper presents a detailed theoretical and experimental study of the impact of amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) on self-phase modulation in semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). A theoretical model of pulse propagation in SOAs is developed that includes the ASE power and its effect on gainsaturation and gain-recovery. We study the impact of ASE on the nonlinear phase shift, frequency...
متن کاملEnhanced Modulation and Noise Characteristics in 1.55 µm QD Lasers using Additional Optical Pumping
The modulation response, relative intensity noise (RIN) and frequency noise (FN) characteristics of quantum dot (QD) lasers are investigated theoretically in the presence of an external optical beam. Using small signal analysis of the rate equations for carriers and photons, it is demonstrated that by injecting excess carriers into the QDs excited state through optical pumping, the modulation r...
متن کاملModal cutoff in microstructured optical fibers.
We analyze the nature of modal cutoff in microstructured optical fibers of finite cross section. In doing so, we reconcile the striking endlessly single-mode behavior with the fact that in such fibers all propagation constants are complex. We show that the second mode undergoes a strong change of behavior that is reflected in the losses, effective area, and multipolar structure. We establish th...
