چکیده

We create a transient Bragg grating in a high-harmonic generation medium using two counterpropagating pulses. The Bragg grating disperses the harmonics in angle and can diffract a large bandwidth with temporal resolution limited only by the source size.

Impact of dispersive and saturable gain/loss on bistability of nonlinear parity-time Bragg gratings.

We report on the impact of realistic gain and loss models on the bistable operation of nonlinear parity-time (PT) Bragg gratings. In our model we include both dispersive and saturable gain and show that levels of gain/loss saturation can have a significant impact on the bistable operation of a nonlinear PT Bragg grating based on GaAs material. The hysteresis of the nonlinear PT Bragg grating is...

Modelling of Dispersive PT-Symmetric Bragg Grating

This paper reports on the time-domain numerical model of a parity-time Bragg grating with saturated and dispersive gain. The model is compared against the ideal PT scenario where the gain is constant and unsaturated for all frequencies.

Analysis of Fiber Bragg Gratings for Dispersion Compensation in Reflective and Transmissive Geometries

Numerical analysis of the dispersion-compensating properties of fiber Bragg gratings (FBG’s) in both reflective and transmissive modes is presented. First, the sensitivity of chirped, reflective gratings to the grating chirp parameter, index modulation, and grating length is examined, showing that apodization provides lower sensitivity to variations in these parameters. Second, we introduce a n...

Unique Solution of Short Pulse Propagation in Nonlinear Fiber Bragg Grating

In this study, a new numerical method is introduced to obtain the exact shape of output pulse in the chalcogenide fiber Bragg grating (FBG). A Gaussian pulse shape with 173 ps width is used as an input pulse for lunching to a 6.6 mm nonlinear FBG. Because of bistable and hysteresis nature of nonlinear FBG the time sequence of each portion of pulse is affected the shape of output pulse. So we di...

Effect of phase mask alignment on fiber Bragg grating spectra at harmonics of the Bragg wavelength.

Effects of fabrication conditions on the double-peak structure observed in fiber Bragg gratings at harmonics of the Bragg wavelength were investigated, showing that slight variations in the alignment of the phase mask can affect the grating spectra significantly. A single peak occurs only when the incident beam direction is perfectly normal with respect to the fiber.
