Widely Tunable Femtosecond Soliton Pulse Generation by Using Soliton-Frequency Shift in a Photonic Crystal Fibre

Femtosecond Raman soliton generation, tunable from 800 to 1044nm, has been theoretically investigated for a photonic crystal fibre pumped by a 200-fs pulse. A highly nonlinear photonic crystal fibre with a length of only 57.7cm and a nonlinear coefficient of 0.075 (Wm)^-1 is used to achieved such a broadband. It is found that the spectral bandwidth increases with the input peak power. In particular, it is also found that the output wavelengths of the resulting sub-40 fs Raman solitons can also be tuned effectively by varying the initial pulse chirp. There exists an optimal positive chirp which maximizes the bandwidth, corresponding to the formation of only one long-wavelength Raman soliton.     

Few-cycle relativistic solitons in plasmas

A set of exact one-dimensional solutions to coupled nonlinear equations describing the propagation of a relativistic ultrashort circularly polarized laser pulse in a cold collisionless and bounded plasma where electrons have an initial velocity in the laser propagating direction is presented. The solutions investigated here are in the form of quickly moving envelop solitons at a propagation velocity comparable to the light speed. The features of solitons in both underdense and overdense plasmas with electrons having different given initial velocities in the laser propagating direction are described. It is found that the amplitude of solitons is larger and soliton width shorter in plasmas where electrons have a larger initial velocity. In overdense plasmas, soliton duration is shorter, the amplitude higher than that in underdense plasmas where electrons have the same initial velocity.     

用圆对称截面波导逼近正多边形截面波导的方法

求解各类截面波导的本征方程，一直是导波光学研究的焦点问题。提出用内切圆和外接圆截面波导逼近正多边形截面波导的方法，把正多边形截面分为三个部分：内切圆以内，外接圆以外，以及介于它们之间的第三部分。根据各边界处电磁场切向分量相等的条件，得到了正多边形截面波导的传播方程和TE0n各模式的截止条件，在所给定的截面条件下，得出可以容纳的TE波模式数为22个。

飞秒光脉冲在光子晶体光纤中的非线性传输和超连续谱产生

采用分步傅里叶方法数值模拟了飞秒光脉冲在光子晶体光纤中非线性传输和超连续谱的产生. 计算和分析了高阶色散和非线性效应对超连续谱形状和带宽的影响. 结果表明在光子晶体光纤中产生了孤子自频移现象. 同时也发现脉冲内拉曼散射和自相位调制的联合作用导致了超连续谱中精细结构的出现. 另外，还发现高阶色散和初始光脉冲的峰值功率对超连续谱的带宽和平滑也有直接影响. 关键词： 光子晶体光纤 孤子自频移 超连续谱
