Unique Solution of Short Pulse Propagation in Nonlinear Fiber Bragg Grating

Authors

Abstract:

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 divide the pulse to leading and trailing portion in time. By using bistability curve and Fourier transformation, the exact shape of output pulse is simulated. In comparison of non-unique solution for output pulse in the previous papers, the results of this study have an optional merit.

Experimental demonstration of nonlinear pulse propagation in a fiber Bragg grating written in a fiber amplifier.

We study experimentally nonlinear propagation of sub-nanosecond optical pulses in a fiber Bragg grating written in a Ytterbium-doped fiber amplifier (YD-FBG). The magnitude and the sign of group velocity dispersion (GVD) in YD-FBG can be controlled by adjusting the fiber tension. In the case of anomalous GVD, pulse breakup was observed due to modulation instability. However, for the same input ...

Nonlinear pulse propagation in birefringent fiber Bragg gratings.

We present two sets of equations to describe nonlinear pulse propagation in a birefringent fiber Bragg grating. The first set uses a coupled-mode formalism to describe light in or near the photonic band gap of the grating. The second set is a pair of coupled nonlinear Schroedinger equations. We use these equations to examine viable switching experiments in the presence of birefringence. We show...

Pulse Switching in Nonlinear Fiber Bragg Gratings

The influence of the Kerr-like nonlinearity in the switching characteristics of fiber Bragg gratings is studied. Two types of apodization profiles are considered: uniform and raisedcosine apodized gratings. The influence of the bit-rate and the wavelength detuning of the incident pulses in the nonlinear response of the grating is analyzed. The deterioration in the pulses caused by the nonlinear...

On Coherent Optical Pulse Propagation in One-dimensional Bragg Grating

The propagation of the solitary waves in the Bragg grating formed by array of thin dielectric films is considered. We assume that the thin films of contain the resonant molecules, which are evolved according to two-level atoms model, which is used to description of the coherent optical pulses propagation. There the alternative derivation of the Mantsyzov’s equations is represented. PACS : 42.65...
