Ultrashort pulse generation from binary temporal phase modulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose and numerically validate an all-optical scheme to generate a train of optical pulses. Modulation continuous wave with periodic binary temporal phase pattern followed by spectral shaping enables us obtain ultrashort pulse trains. An ideal step profile as well arisen from bandwidth-limited device is investigated. Analytical guidelines describing formation their characteristics are provided. Pulses duration few picoseconds at repetition rate 10 GHz can be expected for realistic experimental conditions.

Ultrashort pulse generation by molecular modulation
This PhD Tutorial describes a new source of coherent radiation, with a spectrum extending over many octaves of optical bandwidth. We demonstrate collinear generation of mutually coherent spectral sidebands, ranging in wavelength from 2.94 μm in the infrared to 195 nm in the ultraviolet. The pulse energies are above 1 mJ/10 ns pulse for each of the nine central sidebands. The essence of our tech...
متن کاملUltrashort-pulse second-harmonic generation with longitudinally nonuniform quasi-phase- matching gratings: pulse compression and shaping
We present a theory of ultrashort-pulse second-harmonic generation (SHG) in materials with longitudinally nonuniform quasi-phase-matching (QPM) gratings. We derive an expression for the output second-harmonic field generated in an arbitrary QPM grating from an arbitrary fundamental field, valid for arbitrary material dispersion in the undepleted-pump approximation. In the case when group-veloci...
متن کاملQuasiperiodic Raman technique for ultrashort pulse generation.
We report the experimental demonstration of a new Raman technique that produces 200 sidebands, ranging in wavelength from 3 microm to 195 nm. By studying multiphoton ionization of nitric oxide (NO) molecules, we show mutual phase coherence among 15 visible sidebands covering 0.63 octaves of bandwidth.
متن کاملUltrashort-pulse generation using two-photon gain.
A recent demonstration of a two-photon laser' has raised the question of the dynamics of two-photon lasers. These dynamics are highly nonlinear, and linear concepts that limit the pulse width, such as gain and cavity bandwidths, are not applicable in their familiar form. In this Letter, we propose a new mechanism for generating mode-locked pulses based on a classic model for two-photon gain (TP...
متن کاملReversing intrachannel ghost-pulse generation by midspan self-phase modulation.
Intrachannel pulse interactions are the dominating nonlinear effects in modern transmission systems with high modulation speeds. Scaled symmetries have proved to be effective in suppressing amplitude and timing jitter of mark pulses due to nonlinearity but not for ghost-pulse generation into the empty slots. A method of using midspan self-phase modulation to reverse the generation of ghost puls...
