The use of synthetic input sequences in time series modeling

In many situations time series models obtained from noise-like data settle to trivial solutions under iteration. This Letter proposes a way of producing a synthetic (dummy) input, that is included to prevent the model from settling down to a trivial solution, while maintaining features of the original signal. Simulated benchmark models and a real time series of RR intervals from an ECG are used to illustrate the procedure.     

An investigation of dark soliton behaviors within the nonlinear micro and nano ring resonators

We firstly propose the interesting results of a dark soliton pulse propagating within the nonlinear micro and nano waveguides. The system consists of nonlinear micro and nano ring resonators, whereas the dark soliton is input into the system and traveling within the waveguide. A continuous dark soliton pulse is chopped to be the smaller pulses by the nonlinear effects known as chaos. The nonlinear behaviors such as chaos, bistability and bifurcation are analyzed and discussed. The power amplification is the property that can be used to perform the long distance link, where the security is the dominant reason.

Enhanced nonlinear effects in pulse propagation through epsilon‐near‐zero media

In recent years, unconventional metamaterial properties have triggered a revolution of electromagnetic research which has unveiled novel scenarios of wave‐matter interaction. A very small dielectric permittivity is a leading example of such unusual features, since it produces an exotic static‐like regime where the electromagnetic field is spatially slowly‐varying over a physically large region. The so‐called epsilon‐near‐zero metamaterials thus offer an ideal platform where to manipulate the inner details of the “stretched” field. Here we theoretically prove that a standard nonlinearity is able to operate such a manipulation to the point that even a thin slab produces a dramatic nonlinear pulse transformation, if the dielectric permittivity is very small within the field bandwidth. The predicted non‐resonant releasing of full nonlinear coupling produced by the epsilon‐near‐zero condition does not resort to any field enhancement mechanism and opens novel routes to exploiting matter nonlinearity for steering the radiation by means of ultra‐compact structures.

     

Analysis of a gained nonlinear directional coupler pulse switch

We have investigated the switching performance of a gained (nonlinear directional coupler) NLDC switch in the presence of both 2nd and 4th order gain nonlinearities. In this system, we have achieved a nearly complete pulse switching at half beat length of the coupler which implies about 40% reduction in the switching length as compared to the switching length reported in Trillo et al. (1988). We have shown that at the half beat length the output energy of each branch is equal to that of the input energy and hence the gained NLDC switches have ability to be cascaded. Our initial investigations reveal that this gained NLDC switch has remarkable performance and potential to be used in ultra-fast optical communication systems.     

Third-order nonlinear optical response of silicon nanostructures dispersed in organic solvent under 1064 nm and 532 nm laser excitations

Silicon nanostructures are dispersed into an organic solvent and the third order optical properties of the system are studied by z-scan technique under 1064 nm and 532 nm excitations. The experiment results show that the silicon nanostructures exhibit self-focus and saturable absorption with both excitation wavelengths. Nonlinear absorption results suggest that a new optical bleaching band exists under 532 nm excitation, and a two-step mechanism is tentatively put forward to explain the saturable absorption under 1064 nm excitation.

 Through the differential equation describing the behavior of the nonlinear polarization of a medium with respect to an incident field, the Maxwell field equations and the boundary conditions of the field inside a resonator, the relationship between the output and the incident fields is obtained, describing a bistability phenomena. The effect of the spectral profile of the incident field and its spectral halfwidth on the bistability phenomena is studied.     

The nonlinear optical response of new organometallic compounds under picosecond excitation

The nonlinear optical response of three new organometallic compounds was studied by z-scan method under picosecond excitation at 1064 and 532 nm. The compounds showed self-focus effect at both wavelengths, and effective reverse saturation absorption at 532 nm and strong two-photon absorption at 1064 nm occurred. Through calculating and comparing the nonlinear optical indexes of the compounds, we found that the third-order nonlinear susceptibility was enhanced by two-fold for one photon transition resonant effect, and incorporating different heavy metal atoms in the delocalized organic system slightly influenced the nonlinear optical indexes.
