All-fibered high-quality low duty-cycle 160-GHz femtosecond pulse source

چکیده
In this paper, we report the experimental demonstration of an all-optical fiber-based 160-GHz femtosecond pulse source exhibiting a duty cycle as low as 1/17. The 380-fs wellseparated Gaussian pulses are generated thanks to the strong temporal compression of an initial beat-signal propagating into three distinct segments of optical fiber. Experimental results are supported by numerical simulations based on the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation. −6 −4 −2 0 2 4 6 0 2 4 6 Time [ps] P o w er [ W ]

Multiple four-wave mixing in optical fibers: 1.5–3.4-THz femtosecond pulse sources and real-time monitoring of a 20-GHz picosecond source
In this work, we report recent progress on the design of all-fibered ultra-high repetition-rate pulse sources for telecommunication applications around 1550 nm. The sources are based on the nonlinear compression of an initial beat-signal through a multiple four-wave mixing process taking place into an optical fiber. We experimentally demonstrate real time monitoring of a 20 GHz pulse source hav...
متن کاملA high frequency search for radio pulsars in three EGRET error boxes
We present a new survey for pulsars in the error boxes of the low-latitude EGRET sources 3EG J1027−5817, 3EG J1800−2338 and 3EG J1810−1032. Although all of these sources have been covered by previous pulsar surveys, the recent discovery of the young, energetic pulsar PSR J1410−6132 at 6.7 GHz has shown that pulsars of this type can be hidden from low frequency surveys. Using an observing freque...
متن کاملAll-optical extinction-ratio enhancement of a 160 GHz pulse train by a saturable-absorber vertical microcavity.
A vertical-access passive all-optical gate has been used to improve the extinction ratio of a 160 GHz pico-second pulse train at 1555 nm. An extinction ratio enhancement of 6 dB is observed within an 8 nm bandwidth. Such a device is a promising candidate for low-cost all optical reamplication and reshaping (2R) regeneration at 160 Gbits/s.
متن کاملCompensation of Discontinuous Conduction in Three Phase Voltage Source PWM Inverters
Nowadays the increasing utilization of alternative energy sources demand power converters capable of delivering high quality energy to the low voltage grid. Good dead time compensation and linear operation are essential to keep low order harmonics at acceptable levels. High-current operating conditions are well handled by traditional methods, but low current behaviour and waveforms with multipl...
متن کاملUltrafast time-domain spectroscopy based on high-speed asynchronous optical sampling.
High-speed asynchronous optical sampling (ASOPS) is a novel technique for ultrafast time-domain spectroscopy (TDS). It employs two mode-locked femtosecond oscillators operating at a fixed repetition frequency difference as sources of pump and probe pulses. We present a system where the 1 GHz pulse repetition frequencies of two Ti:sapphire oscillators are linked at an offset of Deltaf(R)=10 kHz....
