In this paper Raman-parametric amplifier has been investigated for long haul Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexed (DWDM), L-band transmission. The performance of the proposed hybrid model has been compared in terms of signal gain and OSNR with FOPA and EDFA FOPA. Feasibility of Raman-FOPA for future long haul extended DWDM systems has been explored. Results indicate an achievable OSNR of 28 dB...

Dual-function amplifiers are proposed for the first time herein enhancing capability of a scanning test vehicle bridges. To start, closed-form solutions derived dynamic responses amplifier-vehicle-bridge system with moving vehicle. Then, amplification factors amplifier and presented assessing bridge/vehicle vehicle/amplifier transmissibility. It was known that spectrum may be hindered extractin...

Quantum amplifier channels are at the core of several physical processes in nature. Not only do they model the optical process of spontaneous parametric down-conversion, but the Bogoliubov transformation corresponding to an amplifier channel also describes the physics of the dynamical Casimir effect in superconducting circuits, the Unruh effect, and Hawking radiation. Here we study the communic...

We consider a parametrically-driven nonlinear ODE, which encompasses a simple model of an electronic circuit known as a parametric amplifier, whose linearisation has a zero eigenvalue. By adopting two different approaches, we obtain conditions for the origin to be a global attractor which is approached (a) non-monotonically and (b) monotonically. In case (b), we obtain an asymptotic expression ...

Linear optical networks are devices that turn classical incident modes by a linear transformation into outgoing ones. In general, the quantum version of such transformations may mix annihilation and creation operators. We derive a simple formula for an effective Hamiltonian generating the scattering operator of a general linear quantum network. Our formula shows how to compute the effective Ham...

We report the extension of hollow-core fibre pulse compression to longer wavelengths. High-energy multi-cycle infrared pulses are generated via optical parametric amplification and subsequently broadened in the fibre. 2.5-cycle pulses at the Signal wavelength (1.4 μm) and 1.6-cycle pulses at the Idler wavelength (1.8 μm) in the sub-millijoule regime have been generated. New compression schemes ...

Recent work in two brane Randall-Sundrum models has shown that the radion can drive parametric amplification of particles on the TeV brane leading to a stage of cosmology similar to preheating. We consider radion induced preheating as a mechanism for electroweak scale baryogenesis and estimate the baryon to entropy ratio for some regions of parameter space. We also predict an upper bound for th...

The extent to which the intense light generated by an unseeded, high-gain optical parametric ampli®er retains the desired quantum statistical properties of the individual photon pairs generated by spontaneous parametric downconversion is analysed. It is shown that certain but not all of these properties are retained, with important implications for applications of quantum optics.
