A Time-domain Beam-propagation Method for Analyzing Pulsed Optical Beams in Second-order Nonlinear Waveguides
نویسنده
چکیده
The linear time-domain beam propagation method ( ) TD BPM has been extended to model the propagation of pulsed optical beams in second-order nonlinear optical material of integrated wa eguides. The coupled nonlinear wa e equations ha e been deri ed and discretized using the explicit finite-difference method. The nonlinear TD BPM method de eloped in the present work is ery efficient, and is simple to implement. 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 28: 253 257, 2001.

Applications of the nonlinear finite difference time domain NLFDTD method to pulse propagation in nonlinear media: Selffocusing and linearnonlinear interfaces
In an effort to meet an ever increasing demand for more accurate and realistic integrated photonics simulations, we have developed a multidimensional, nonlinear finite difference time domain (NL-FDTD) Maxwe11's equations olver. The NL-FDTD approach and its application to the modeling of the interaction of an ultrashort, optical pulsed Gaussian beam with a Kerr nonlinear material will be describ...

متن کاملA novel design for all-optical NAND/NOR/XOR gates based on nonlinear directional coupler
In this paper a novel all-optical logic NAND, NOR and XOR gate based on nonlinear directional coupler theory is demonstrated. We use the identical structure which contains three waveguides, for designing these gates; the only difference however, is the power of inputs light beam. In other words, while a beam with 4 W/μm in power considered as logical one, the output is NAND gate and if a beam w...

متن کاملSpatial optical solitons in planar glass waveguides
We report experimental studies of spatial optical solitons in a nonlinear glass waveguide. Spatial solitons are self-trapped beams that propagate without diffraction. We demonstrate the formation of spatial solitons, and we investigate interactions between them. At high intensities two-photon absorption is observed to lead to the breakup of solitons. A beam propagation method is used to simulat...
