Cross-correlation frequency-resolved optical gating and dynamics of temporal solitons in silicon nanowire waveguides.
We demonstrate the evolution of picosecond pulses in silicon nanowire waveguides by sum frequency generation cross-correlation frequency-resolved optical gating (SFG-XFROG) and nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) modeling. Due to the unambiguous temporal direction and ultrahigh sensitivity of the SFG-XFROG, which enable observation of the pulse accelerations, the captured pulses' temporal and...

Optical pulse comp...
متن کاملUltrafast pulse characterization using XPM in silicon
Due to the high-index contrast between the silicon core and silica cladding, the silicon waveguide allows strong optical confinement and large effective nonlinearity, which facilitates low cost chip scale demonstration of all-optical nonlinear functional devices at relatively low pump powers. One of the challenges in ultrafast science is the full characterization of optical pulses in real time....
