Subpicosecond optical pulses propagating in single-mode fibers are severely distorted by
third-order dispersion even at the fiber's zero-dispersion wavelength (lambda/sub 0/). Using …

The transmission of ultrashort optical pulses over long distances in optical fibers is limited by
pulse broadening due to group velocity dispersion. A grating and telescope dispersion …

The theory of pulse distortion in single-mode fibers is extended to include laser sources that
suffer a linear wavelength sweep (chirp) during the duration of the pulse. The transmitted …

A theory is presented of the propagation of Gaussian pulses in single-mode optical fibers by
expanding the propagation constant in a Taylor series that includes the third derivative with …

Higher-order effects in femtosecond-pulse propagation in optical fibers are examined. In
particular, the specific contributions to nonlinear chirping in the fiber by the higher-order …

The theory of pulse distortion in single-mode fibers is extended to include laser sources
such as injection lasers operating simultaneously at several distinct wavelengths. The …

We demonstrate nearly distortionless 2.5-km fiber transmission of sub-500-fs pulses, using a
combination of standard single-mode fiber, dispersion-compensating fiber, and a …

Developed highly chirped broadband fiber Bragg gratings and suspended-core fibers are
shown to offer flexible dispersion management and allow for femtosecond oscillators with …

Although high speed time division multiplexing (TDM) transmission will be a key technology
for future high-capacity networks [1, 2], one, serious problem is high order dispersion …

It is commonly agreed that high-bit-rate communication systems have to be implemented in
fiber-based networks. The information capacity in conventional nonsoliton longhaul …
