چکیده
Efficient slow and fast light fiber devices based on narrow band optical parametric amplification require a strict polarization control of the waves involved in the interaction. The use of high birefringence and spun fibers is studied theoretically, possible impairments evaluated, and design parameters determined.

Tunable all optical delay via slow and fast light propagation in a Raman assisted fiber optical parametric amplifier: a route to all optical buffering.
We propose and demonstrate the use of narrow band optical parametric amplification for tunable slow and fast light propagation in optical fibers. The parametric gain is coupled to the Raman process which changes the gain value moderately but modifies the gain spectral shape. Consequently, the delay is enhanced at short wavelengths while it is moderated at long wavelengths. The maximum delay and...

Vector formalism for stimulated Brillouin scattering amplification in birefringent fibers is used to model the fiber as an equivalent, pseudo-linear, polarization-dependent gain medium. Implications on slow and fast light setups are discussed. ©2009 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (290.5900) Scattering, stimulated Brillouin; (120.5410) Polarimetry; (060.2300) Fiber measurements.
متن کاملSimultaneous polarization attraction and Raman amplification of a light beam in optical fibers
In this paper, we demonstrate that it is possible to combine both Raman amplification and polarization attraction of a signal wave in a single optical fiber by means of a counterpropagating scheme. Experiments were performed near 1550 nm in continuous wave regime and by means of a 10-Gbit/s return-to-zero signal injected in a 20 km-long lowPMD optical fiber. Complete repolarization and 6.7 dB a...
