Spectral power handling capability caused by stimulated Raman scattering effect in silica optical fibers

Spectral characteristics of the stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in silica fibers was studied for the purpose of obtaining higher power transmission capability in single-mode silica optical fibers. When the input power exceeds a critical input power, which depends on the wavelength, nonlinear transmission loss caused by SRS gives rise to excess loss and signal waveform distortion. The SRS effect is reduced under the condition of sufficiently large spectral loss at the first Stokes wavelength.     

Continuous-wave pumped, all-fiber optical parametric oscillator assisted by stimulated Raman scattering

A continuous-wave pumped, all-fiber optical parametric oscillator (OPO) around 1523 nm based on the mixing interaction of parametric process and stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) effects are investigated in this paper. We study and give the detailed analysis of the generation and output characteristics of all-fiber OPO with the influence of the SRS effects. Experimental results show that there exists the saturation output effect for this kind of OPO due to the coexistence of first order SRS effect, second order SRS and the optical parametric oscillation. The maximal output power of OPO is about 100 mW as the pump power reaches 1.4 W. Furthermore, a depolarized L-band super-continuum light source from 1570 nm to 1640 nm based on the combined interaction of parametric process and SRS effects can also be obtained.

高功率双包层光纤激光器受激拉曼散射和热效应的理论研究

 受激拉曼散射和热效应会限制光纤激光器功率的提高。利用高功率光纤激光器的速率方程和热传导方程，理论研究了双端泵浦和分布泵浦下双包层光纤激光器的受激拉曼散射和热效应，得到了光纤中的泵浦光、激光和斯托克斯光的功率分布，光纤激光器的输出特性以及光纤中的温度分布。分析表明，当泵浦功率增大到一定值时，光纤激光器中出现SRS，一部分激光功率会转移给斯托克斯光，影响激光功率进一步提高;与双端泵浦方式相比，分布泵浦下光纤激光器的斜率效率和最大输出功率相差不大，但是，光纤中的温度分布被有效地降低，因此，分布泵浦方式更为有效。     

双包层光纤激光器的受激拉曼散射与热应力

Stimulated raman scattering in fiber optic systems

The effect of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in fiber optic communications is considered. On one hand, SRS limits the launch power in a multiple-channel communication system; while on the other hand, SRS can provide optical amplification in the 1.3-μm and 1.55-μm windows. In most of the previous work these issues have been treated separately by using different assumptions. A solution is usually obtained by solving differential equations. We present a numerical method that involves the simultaneous solution of integral equations describing SRS in optical fiber. The method is general enough to be applicable for wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), optic frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), and optical amplification. However, it is efficient and simple to program and uses just a few realistic assumptions. A WDM communication system with 10 optical channels in the 1.55-μm window is studied by using this method, The data rate is above 1 Gbps. The system parameters are such that the other nonlinear effects, such as stimulated Brillouin scattering and four-wave mixing, are less significant for the system. Launch power limitations imposed by SRS are investigated for IM / DD and coherent systems. The receiver dynamic range over the wavelengths of interest is an important factor in determining the launch power limitations. An optical amplifier in the 1.3-μm window is also analyzed. The two-pump technique is investigated. With pump power levels of about 500 mw 0-dB gain can be achieved for a 30-km repeaterless link. Finally, the calculated results agree with the experiments.

Analysis of bottlenecks in DWDM fiber optic communication system

This paper deals with the limiting factors like Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS), Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) and Four Wave Mixing (FWM) in DWDM Fiber Optic Communication. The variation of SBS threshold power level for the spectral width of the source is analyzed and it is found that addition of spectral width in the source lowers the SBS effect. By reducing the SBS effect, we could transmit more optical power in a single channel and maintain high OSNR. Similarly the effect of phase mismatching (dispersion) and wavelength spacing on both FWM and SRS are analyzed. This work aims at finding the optimal value of spectral width, dispersion and channel spacing, thereby exploring the possibilities of increasing the overall capacity of the fiber optic trunk line.     

Stimulated raman scattering in fiber-optic communication lines

Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in a long-distance fiber-optic communication line with wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) is studied theoretically at a high power of the signal transmitted. A new criterion for determining the SRS threshold is used to calculate the critical input power versus the number of optical channels and frequency separation between them. The theoretical model is verified experimentally. SRS interaction between two channels in a communication line with an SRS amplifier for which the optical waveguide of the line serves as a nonlinear medium is measured.     

Effect of diffraction on stimulated Raman scattering of laser radiation in the middle atmosphere

The theoretical aspects of propagation of laser radiation along slanted paths in the atmosphere at high altitudes under conditions of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) by molecular nitrogen are considered. The SRS power conversion coefficient, the transverse intensity distribution, and the effective size of laser beams with different initial spatial profiles are numerically simulated along the propagation path. The behavior of these parameters is studied for different ratios between the optical path length and the length of free diffraction of the initial laser beam. It is shown that, at a given level of the increment of the SRS amplification, the diffraction can both increase and decrease the efficiency of the Raman interaction of waves owing to the intensity redistribution in the transverse beam profile. This effect is the most pronounced for beams with non-Gaussian initial spatial intensity profiles.     

Low threshold Raman effect in high power narrowband fiber amplifier

A low-threshold Raman effect in a kilowatt ytterbium-doped narrowband fiber amplifier system is reported. The Raman Stokes light at 1120 nm is achieved with the total output power of only ~400 W, indicating that the Raman threshold of this kilowatt codirectional pumped continuous wave fiber amplifier is much lower than the predicted value estimated by the classic formula. To figure out the mechanism of this phenomenon, simulations based on the general stimulated Raman scattering(SRS) model are analyzed indicating that the key factor is the coupling between four-wave mixing(FWM) and SRS. The simulation results are in good agreement with our experiments.

Stimulated Raman spectra generated by ps-pulses in a single-mode fiber

Efficient frequency conversion of 5 ps-pulses from a cavity dumped Rh6G-dye laser by stimulated-Raman-scattering (SRS) into the first and second Stokes order has been achieved. The simulateneously produced asymmetric spectrical broadening of the pump pulses leads to double peaks in the Raman spectrum. By means of spectrally resolved cross-correlation measurements with 2 ps pulses from a second synchronized dye laser, the relative arrival time of the various spectral components is measured. Furthermore it is shown that the effect of a reduction of the pump peak power by SPM is partially compensated by the temporal broadening of the pump pulses leading to a longer interaction length for SRS.

Light beams wavefront reconstruction and real volume image reconstruction of the object at the stimulated Raman scattering

In the present work volume real image reconstruction at the Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) of the object, illuminated by laser light, has been observed experimentally for the first time in the large wavelength diapason. The thresholds and exciting power density intervals for observation of the reconstruction differ for different wavelengths and kinds of stimulated scattering. The image reconstruction at stimulated scattering has been shown to be consequence of the wavefront reconstruction effect at SRS, revealed by the authors in 1970. The phenomenon of the image reconstruction at stimulated scattering has some common features with the holograms registration and reconstruction, but there is no known holography method, quite similar to the discovered effect.

Frequency comb expansion in a monolithic self‐mode‐locked laser concurrent with stimulated Raman scattering

The discovery of a novel phase‐locked frequency comb generated from a monolithic laser with the concurrent processes of self‐mode locking (SML) and stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) is reported. It is experimentally shown that the width of the Raman gain can be exploited to considerably expand the frequency comb of a monolithic SML crystal laser via the SRS process. At a pump power of 6.5 W, an output power of 140 mW in the Stokes wave with a pulse width as narrow as 2.9 ps at a pulse repetition rate of 6.615 GHz is obtained. The present finding not only provides useful insights into the monolithic intracavity SRS process but also paves the way for generating mode‐locked pulses based on monolithic self‐Raman crystals.
