Dispersion cancellation using linearly chirped Bragg grating filters in optical waveguides

F Ouellette - Optics letters, 1987 - opg.optica.org
The use of a linearly chirped Bragg grating filter for dispersion cancellation in an optical-fiber
link is discussed. Numerical and theoretical calculations are made, which show that, with the …

Nonlinear picosecond-pulse propagation through optical fibers with positive group velocity dispersion

H Nakatsuka, D Grischkowsky, AC Balant - Physical Review Letters, 1981 - APS
The predictions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation have been tested by passing 5.5-
psec optical pulses through a 70-m single-mode optical fiber. With use of a precise cross …

phenomenon. A brief analysis of linear propagation of ultrashort laser pulses in dispersive …

12× pulse compression using optical fibers

B Nikolaus, D Grischkowsky - Applied Physics Letters, 1983 - pubs.aip.org
We report a factor of12 compression ofthe 5.4-ps, 1-k W pulses from a mode-locked dye
laser. The pulses were frequency broadened and linearly chirped by the combined action of …

90‐fs tunable optical pulses obtained by two‐stage pulse compression

B Nikolaus, D Grischkowsky - Applied physics letters, 1983 - pubs.aip.org
We report a factor of 65 compression of the 5.9‐ps [full width at half‐maximum (FWHM)]
pulses from a mode‐locked dye laser by a two‐stage technique. In each stage the laser …

Theory of self-phase modulation and spectral broadening

RR Alfano, YR Shen, GZ Yang - … Laser Source: The Ultimate White Light, 2016 - Springer
Self-phase modulation refers to the phenomenon in which a laser beam propagating in a
medium interacts with the medium and imposes a phase modulation on itself. It is one of …

Generation of pulses shorter than 70 fs with a synchronously-pumped cw dye laser

GA Mourou, T Sizer Ii - Optics Communications, 1982 - Elsevier
Pulses shorter than 70 fs are generated with a synchronously-pumped cw dye laser using a
dye medium composed of a mixture of rhodamine 6G and a fast recovery saturable …
