Dispersion-Managed Optical Solitons with Higher-Order Nonlinearity

In this paper we have investigated the propagation characteristics of optical solitons in dispersion managed optical communication systems taking into account of the effect of quintic nonlinearity. Using variational formalism, several ordinary differential equations have been established for pulse parameters. These equations have been solved numerically to investigate the propagation characteristics. It has been noticed that stable periodic pulse propagation is possible over long distance. Numerical simulation has been undertaken to show that parabolic nonlinearity reduces collision distance between neighbouring pulses of the same channel.     

二维三角光学格子中的PT光孤子研究

研究了基于自散焦克尔非线性的PT对称三角格子中双峰光孤子的存在性及稳定性。采用改进的平方算子法(MSOM)迭代计算出孤子的数值解,发现双峰之间具有相同相位的双峰光孤子存在于第一带隙,并且可以在某个范围内稳定传输。由傅里叶配点法得到的线性稳定性与非线性模拟传输的结果是一致的。此外,这种PT对称的双峰光孤子对入射角度非常敏感,从不同角度入射的光孤子具有不同的传输特性。     

Timing Jitter and Frequency Shift in Dispersion-Managed Soliton Systems with Raman Scattering Effect

We have studied the timing jitter in dispersion-managed soliton systems with a Gaussian pulse by two methods. Firstly, the timing jitter expressions for dispersion-managed soliton are derived by use of the perturbed variational method. By analyzing and simulating the timing jitter expressions, one can find that the timing jitter is induced by the amplifier spontaneous emission noise, the frequency shift, etc. The chirp sign, the soliton self-frequency shift, and the filters action also have effects on the timing jitter. Secondly, the timing jitter is calculated and analyzed by the moment method. The results of the two methods are proved to be consistent.     

Higher-Order Effects Induced Optical Solitons in Fiber

In this paper, we study the existence conditions of the soliton solutions induced by considering the higher-order effects such as the third-order dispersion (TOD), self-steepening (SS), and self-frequency shift arising from stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) simultaneously in optical soliton communication. Based on the Jacobian expansion method, we successfully obtain bright and dark solitons. The results shows that the resultant inclusion is in agreement with Mollenauer et al. [Physical Review Letters 45 (1980) 1095] when the SRS is not considered; while when the SRS is considered, the existence conditions of the higher-order effects induced bright and dark solitons are not only quite different from those of the group velocity dispersion (GVD)-induced and self-phase modulation (SPM)-induced solitons, but also different from those of the TOD- and SS-induced solitons discussed by Mollenauer et al. [Physical Review Letters 45 (1980) 1095].     

数值模拟高阶色散和非线性对光孤子传输的影响

光孤子传输中的高阶色散以及高次非线性效应是光纤通讯发展的重要制约因素。从光孤子在光纤中的一般传输方程出发, 在较大的入纤功率的前提下, 综合考虑了高阶色散、五次非线性和损耗因素, 得到其具体传输方程, 并据此从理论上分析了高阶色散和非线性对光孤子传输性能的影响。本文采用分步傅里叶方法, 以MATLAB为实现工具, 实现高阶色散和非线性对光孤子传输影响的模拟计算, 并深入分析了高阶色散和非线性导致的孤子脉冲频移现象。计算结果表明: 在入射功率较大的时候, 高阶色散效应不可忽略。当五次非线性γ2>0时,孤子脉冲主峰发生微小频移; 而当五次非线性γ2<0时, 孤子脉冲主峰基座产生微小频移; 当高阶色散β3>0时频率出现红移, 而当β3<0时, 频率出现蓝移。     

Controllable Optical Solitons in Optical Fiber System with Distributed Coefficients

We present how to control the dynamics of optical solitons in optical fibers under nonlinearity and dispersion management, together with the fiber loss or gain. We obtain a family of exact solutions for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, which describes the propagation of optical pulses in optical fibers, and investigate the dynamical features of solitons by analyzing the exact analytical solutions in different physical situations. The results show that under the appropriate condition, not only the group velocity dispersion and the nonlinearity, but also the loss/gain can be used to manipulate the light pulse.     

Acousto-Optic Solitons in Fibers

It is shown that the deceleration of light pulses down to the velocity of a sound value can be realized in a case of unidirectional parametric interaction of two electromagnetic waves with an acoustic one in the regime of forming three wave acousto-optic solitons. This nonlinear acousto-optic interaction can be realized in long distance systems like fibers. As the result of such an interaction, two types of acousto-optic envelope solitons can propagate in fibers. Modulation of the amplitude of the electromagnetic pump wave can control the soliton velocity.

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。
