初始啁啾对脉冲频谱演变的影响

本文从理论上分析了色散和非线性对脉冲频谱的影响 ,采用数值方法求解了非线性薛定谔方程的频域解。模拟了初始啁啾对不同形状脉冲频谱的作用。研究结果表明 :初始啁啾对频谱的影响随脉冲形状而变化。对高斯型脉冲 ,正的初始啁啾导致频谱严重展宽 ,负初始啁啾对频谱影响较小。超高斯型脉冲的频谱出现了旁瓣 ,这会引起能量的损失 ;而初始啁啾对其频谱的影响并不大。孤子型脉冲的频谱受初始啁啾的影响较大 ,尤其是高阶孤子。因此 ,为了保证脉冲稳定传输 ,必须消除初始啁啾。     

级联单模光纤中初始啁啾对高阶孤子脉冲压缩的影响

采用两段级联单模光纤对高阶孤子脉冲进行压缩。两段光纤具有不同的反常色散值,当高阶孤子脉冲在第一段光纤中获得最大程度压缩时,通过转换色散值不同的光纤,使压缩脉冲继续以高阶孤子的形式在第二段光纤中再次被压缩。每段光纤的长度都进行了优化,使得脉冲在每段光纤中都获得最大程度的压缩。基于非线性薛定谔方程,数值研究了初始啁啾对高阶孤子脉冲压缩的影响。研究结果表明,初始啁啾对高阶孤子脉冲的压缩有重要影响。与无初始啁啾时的情形相比,正的初始啁啾能增强每段光纤中脉冲的压缩效果,降低压缩脉冲的基座能量,而负初始啁啾的影响则相反。随着初始啁啾参量Cp的增大,脉冲在每段光纤中的压缩因子均增加,而基座能量、最优光纤长度均减小。     

色散平坦渐减光纤中非线性啁啾脉冲的传输及超连续谱的产生

基于非线性薛定谔方程,数值研究了色散平坦渐减光纤中非线性啁啾脉冲的传输及超连续谱的产生。研究结果表明,初始啁啾对脉冲传输及超连续谱产生的影响与泵浦条件和光纤参量的选取有很大关系。当色散平坦渐减光纤具有小的归一化二次色散系数时,适当的正啁啾能显著增强超连续谱的带宽,而负啁啾和太大的正啁啾抑制超连续谱的带宽。能增强超连续谱带宽的正啁啾有一个较宽的范围,但随着输入脉冲孤子阶数的降低,该范围将变窄。当色散平坦渐减光纤具有大的归一化二次色散系数同时输入脉冲为低阶孤子时,初始啁啾对超连续谱带宽的增强效果不明显,初始啁啾接近为0时可产生最宽的超连续谱。     

三五阶非线性下啁啾超高斯脉冲的啁啾和频谱

利用三五阶非线性效应下的扩展非线性薛定谔方程,在忽略光纤色散的情况下,计算模拟了以二阶情形为例的啁啾超高斯光脉冲的啁啾和频谱。结果表明,脉冲无预啁啾时,正五阶非线性增大啁啾量,负五阶非线性在减小啁啾量的同时还改变啁啾曲线的形状。当预啁啾与五阶非线性系数同(异)号时,总啁啾增加(减小)。随着超高斯脉冲阶次的增大,总啁啾量增大,脉冲中心附近无啁啾的范围变宽,整个有啁啾的范围变小,总啁啾中预啁啾所占比重增大。脉冲无预啁啾时,正负五阶非线性分别可以增大和减小频谱展宽。预啁啾若增强非线性所致啁啾,则可能使频谱峰值结构加强,谱峰数目增多。当超高斯光脉冲的阶次或最大非线性相移增大时,在某些宽大的频谱峰上还可能出现许多精细谱峰。

Enhanced pulse compression induced by the interaction between the third—order dispersion and the cross—phase modulation in birefringent fibres

In this paper,we report on the enhanced pulse compression due to the interaction between the positive third-order dispersion (TOD) and the nonlinear effect (cross-phase modulation effect) in birefringent fibres.Polarization soliton compression along the slow axis can be enhanced in a birefringent fibre with positive third-order dispersion,while the polarization soliton compression along the fast axis can be enhanced in the fibre with negative third-order dispersion.Moreover,there is an optimal third-order dispersion parameter for obtaining the optimal pulse compression.Redshifted initial chirp is helpful to the pulse compression,while blueshifted chirp is detrimental to the pulse compression.There is also an optimal chirp parameter to reach maximum pulse compression.The optimal pulse compression for TOD parameters under different N-order solitons is also found.     

Dark-bright optical solitons conversion via an optical add/drop filter for signals and networks security applications

We propose a new system of the dark-bright solitons conversion using a micro- and nano-ring resonators incorporating an optical add/drop filter, where the add/drop filter can be used to convert the dark soliton to bright soliton. The key advantage of the system is that the detection of the dark soliton pulse is normally difficult due to low level of input power. Firstly, a dark soliton pulse is input into a micro-ring resonator, then propagating into smaller micro- and nano-ring resonators. Secondly, the add/drop filter is applied (connected) into the ring system, where the bright and the dark solitons are obtained via the drop and through (or throughput) the ports of the add/drop filter, respectively. The results obtained have shown that the detected soliton power can be controlled by the input soliton power and the ring resonator coupling coefficient, which is enough to use in the transmission link. The optical and the quantum networks using dark soliton are also discussed.

用数值方法分析了平行传播异色光伏暗孤子之间及亮-暗孤子之间的相互作用.结果表明，光伏暗孤子共轴传播能在有限的距离内保持准孤子形态，靠近传播时存在着相互吸引的作用 ，而相距较远传播时表现为一孤子暗区使另一孤子的缓变光场部分发生局部会聚作用.光伏暗孤子与亮孤子的相互作用随距离的不同可使亮孤子光强分布变尖锐或变平缓，以及使亮孤子发生能量转移.从两束信号光共同引起折射率波导这一物理机理对光伏孤子这些相互作用给出定性物理解释. 关键词： 光伏空间孤子 暗孤子 亮孤子 相互作用     

掺铒光纤环镜中超短光孤子的放大与压缩Ⅱ.环镜及输入脉冲特性对放大结果的影响

最近的研究发现,用掺铒光纤环镜放大并压缩超短光孤子不仅能避免常规掺铒光纤放大器中由于非线性效应引起的孤子畸变,而且可克服绝热放大技术中放大器长度随输入脉宽增大而指数规律增大的困难。进一步研究了环镜及输入脉冲特性对放大结果的影响。数值计算表明,对于确定的输入脉冲,当环镜参量(环镜长度、增益、耦合器功率耦合系数)在较大范围内变化时,环镜放大器的孤子输出性能基本稳定。对于确定的环镜,输入脉冲形状的变化、初始输入功率的起伏以及高阶效应等因素对放大结果的影响较小;相对而言,初始频率啁啾对输出孤子宽度的影响较大,但对输出孤子质量的影响并不严重。     

Optical AND gate based on soliton interaction in a fiber Bragg grating

Using computer simulations, we demonstrate an optical cascadable AND gate based on soliton interaction in a fiber Bragg grating. A single soliton that is launched into the device is backreflected. When two solitons are launched, one of the solitons is transmitted while the other is backreflected. The time delay between the solitons may be few times longer than the duration of the solitons. We show that the interaction causes an increase in the frequency of one of the solitons that enables its transmission through the grating bandgap.     

The freeze of intrapulse Raman scattering effect of ultrashort solitons in optical fiber

The effect of intrapulse Raman scattering (IRS) for the propagation of the femtosecond solitons in an optical fiber is investigated. To factually simulate its influence, a combination of 27 Lorentian lines to fit experimental Raman gain profile is adopted. By using nonlinear Schrödinger equation and finite-difference time domain method, the propagations of femtosecond fundamental solitons in an optical fiber are numerically calculated. When the initial power is suitably enhanced, it is found that the pulse shape is almost the same as initial pulse and the delay Raman response only makes small pulse shift. In other words, when ultrashort soliton is considered, the IRS effect is similarly frozen under the enhanced initial power.     

光脉冲在标准单模光纤中演化形成孤子的实验研究

利用二次谐波频率分辨光学门脉冲分析仪从实验上分析研究了具有啁啾的10 GHz光脉冲在不同输入功率下演化形成孤子的规律和特点。实验发现:输入脉冲在光纤中传输3.5个色散长度时,其时间宽度、频率啁啾和时间带宽积都随着输入功率的增加而减小。当输入功率大于一阶孤子功率的理论值时,光脉冲能够演化形成孤子;脉冲在随后传输过程中其宽度基本保持不变,波形、频率啁啾和时间带宽积仍随着传输距离的变化而变化;输入功率越高,形成的一阶孤子脉冲的宽度越窄。当输入功率小于一阶孤子功率的理论值时,输出脉冲的时间宽度随着传输距离的增加而增加,频率啁啾随着传输距离的增加而减小,光脉冲不能演化形成孤子。

Soliton Properties of Light Pulses on the Surface of Ionic Crystals Generated by Strong Nonlinear Effects

In this paper, we theoretically discuss the soliton properties of light pulse transportation on the surface of an ionic crystal having strong nonlinear interactions between ions of unit cells. We analyze in detail the dark solitons when the nonlinear coefficient g is positive and negative, respectively. It is found that whether the nonlinear coefficient g is positive or negative, the dark solitons can be formed over the whole dispersion relation area of surface polaritons considering nonlinear effects. Attention should be paid to the fact that around ωTO, the light pulse can form advanced dark solitons, and there is a switching area from advanced dark soliton to retarded dark soliton near ωTO. We also discuss the effects of higher nonlinear dispersion on the solitons.     

Study of femtosecond soliton dynamics in photonic crystal fiber using the moment method

We investigate the dynamics of femtosecond solitons in photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) by including high-order dispersion terms until to sixth-order in the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation, in addition to the nonlinear effects of the self phase modulation, self steepening and Raman scattering. We calculate theoretically the pulse parameters using the moment method. In the case of the fundamental soliton, our computed equations are coupled and difficult to solve analytically. However, we use the finite difference method to calculate numerically pulse parameters using an initially hyperbolic secant pulse at 1550-nm with different peak powers along 10m-PCF. Our numerical results show that the nonlinear regimes allow obtaining pulse compressions and initial pulse amplitudes. Furthermore, we remark a pulse broadening, and weak shifts of the peak power positions and frequencies in the critical and dispersive regimes. The use of an initial chirp provides a better pulse compressions and especially for low input powers. Also, the initial positive chirp reduces the optimal compression position lengths, while the negative one increases them. Therefore, we conclude that our theoretical calculations and numerical simulation results show that the moment method associated with the finite differences method is effective for the study of femtosecond pulse dynamics in PCFs.     

非均匀系统中非自治孤子的色散和非线性管理

基于包含自发拉曼散射和外电光调制效应的非自治非线性薛定谔方程,采用简单的变换方法,解析研究了三种非均匀系统中非自治孤子的管理和传输。结果发现,在非均匀的非线性渐增或色散渐减光纤系统中都存在精确的啁啾非自治孤子解,都可以实现孤子的放大和压缩,但具有不同的速度、频移和啁啾特性;而在非均匀的色散和非线性均渐减光纤系统中,可以支持无啁啾的非自治孤子,该孤子具有不变的脉宽和振幅以及振荡衰减的速度,孤子的频移仅由自发拉曼散射决定。同时,数值模拟结果进一步证实在三种非均匀管理系统中都可支持非自治孤子的传输。该研究结果为实际非均匀孤子管理系统中实现孤子的压缩和传输提供了理论依据。     

Short optical solitons in fibers

The dynamics of short (of the order of a few wave periods) intense optical pulses and interaction of short optical solitons in fibers are considered within the framework of the third-order nonlinear Schrodinger equation. It is shown that an initial pulse tends to one or a few short solitons plus a linear quasiperiodic wave when the third-order linear dispersion and nonlinear dispersion have parameters of the same sign. The number and parameters of the solitons depend on the magnitudes of initial pulse parameters. Interaction of short optical solitons having different amplitudes is accompanied by radiation of part of the wave field from the area of interaction, by an increase of the soliton with larger amplitude, and a decrease of the soliton with a smaller one.

Dark and anti-dark vector solitons of the coupled modified nonlinear Schrödinger equations from the birefringent optical fibers

Coupled modified nonlinear Schr?dinger (CMNLS) equations describe the pulse propagation in the picosecond or femtosecond regime of the birefringent optical fibers. A new type of the Lax pair and another hierarchy of the infinitely many conservation laws are derived based on the Wadati-Konno-Ichikawa system. By means of the Hirota method, soliton solutions in the normal dispersion regime are obtained. Parametric regions for the existence of dark and anti-dark vector soliton solutions are given. Asymptotic analysis shows that the collision between two solitons (two anti-dark solitons, two dark solitons, or dark and anti-dark solitons) in each polarization direction is elastic. Moreover, there is no energy transfer between two polarization components of each vector soliton, whether dark or anti-dark vector soliton. In addition, dark and anti-dark solitons can coexist on the same background seen from the collision between the dark and anti-dark solitons in one polarization direction. Our graphical analysis shows that the parameters in the CMNLS equations not only determine the regions for the existence of dark and anti-dark soliton solutions but also control the phase and direction of the propagation of the solitons. Finally, through the linear stability analysis, the modulational instability condition is given.

Chirped solitons with strong confinement in transmission links with in-line fiber Bragg gratings

We demonstrate that the use of fiber gratings to reverse periodically the pulse chirp in transmission links allows us to produce stable chirped optical solitons with fast-decaying tails. The interaction between neighboring pulses is reduced from that of the usual soliton system as a result of pulse chirping and strong confinement, making possible dense information packing. Such a pulse is an attractive candidate for use as an information carrier in optical transmission systems with ultralarge capacities of approximately 100 Gbits/s.
