Manakov solitons and polarization mode dispersion.

چکیده
The effect of polarization mode dispersion (PMD) on Manakov solitons and dispersion managed solitons is treated analytically and by numerical simulation. In the analytic approach the internal motion of the Manakov soliton is represented as a damped harmonic oscillator. The PMD functions as a white noise source driving the oscillations. It is shown that the solitons can withstand PMD up to a certain instability threshold for which an analytic expression is obtained. This threshold is also evaluated for dispersion managed solitons.

Quantum theory of Manakov solitons
A fully quantum mechanical model of two-component Manakov solitons is developed in both the Heisenberg and Schrödinger representations, followed by an analytical, linearized quantum theory of Manakov solitons in the Heisenberg picture. This theory is used to analyze the vacuum-induced fluctuations of Manakov soliton propagation and collision. The vacuum fluctuations induce phase diffusion and d...
متن کاملPolarization scattering by soliton-soliton collisions
Collision of two solitons of the Manakov system is studied analytically. Existence of a complete polarization mode switching regime is proved and the parameters of solitons prepared for polarization switching are found. The idea of an analytical approach to the description of polarized (i.e., vector) solitons in nonlinear optical fibers is based on the fact [1] that for some values of the param...
متن کاملMultistable collision cycles of Manakov spatial solitons.
We show numerically, using known state-change relations, that collision cycles of Manakov (1+1)-dimensional spatial solitons can exhibit multistable polarization states.
متن کاملPolarized dark solitons in isotropic Kerr media
We characterize dark-type vector optical solitons of arbitrary polarization in isotropic, Kerr-type media by applying Hirota’s method to the integrable Manakov model with a defocusing nonlinearity. We find that nonuniformly polarized solitons comprise a rich solution family that can be divided into two categories: dark-dark and dark-bright vector solitons. We consider the propagation dynamics a...
متن کاملApplication of the Manakov-PMD Equation to Studies of Signal Propagation in Optical Fibers with Rand - Lightwave Technology, Journal of
We report here on our investigations of the Manakov-polarization mode dispersion (PMD) equation which can be used to model both nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) and soliton signal propagation in optical fibers with randomly varying birefringence. We review the derivation of the Manakov-PMD equation from the coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equation, and we discuss the physical meaning of its terms. We disc...
