Effective Soliton Fusion Process at the Advanced Stage of Supercontinuum Generation in Photonic Crystal Fibers
نویسندگان
چکیده
Soliton fusion is a fascinating and delicate phenomenon that manifests itself in optical fibers in case of interaction between co-propagating solitons with small temporal and wavelengths separation. The mechanism of graduate acceleration of trailing soliton by dispersive waves radiated from the preceding one provides necessary conditions for soliton fusion at the advanced stage of supercontinuum generation in photonic crystal fibers. As a result large intensity robust light structures can propagate over significant distances. In the spectral domain fusion-like processes result in development of a new significant band at the long wavelength side of the spectrum.

We have numerically investigated supercontinuum generation in photonic crystal fibers with zero-dispersion wavelengths in the vicinity of 800 nm by using an input pulse with a peak power of about 20 kW and a width of about 10 fs. The effects of fiber dispersion and the input pulse parameters on the generated optical spectra are quantitatively analyzed. The propagation length necessary for the g...
