The optical parametric amplifier (OPA) has attractive features for optical communications, such as a wideband, high gain, and fast transient response. In addition, by using idler light …
This book describes the fundamental aspects of nonlinear optics from basic principles to applications. Starting from the polarization induced by an electric field in a material, it relates …
Optical parametric amplifiers rely on second-order susceptibility (three-wave mixing) or third- order susceptibility (four-wave mixing) in a nonlinear process where the energy of incoming …

We theoretically investigate nonlinear optimization of periodic phase modulation for suppression of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in single-mode optical fibers. We use …
Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is often an unwanted loss mechanism in both active and passive fibers. Highly multimode excitation of fibers has been proposed as a novel route …
We demonstrate, for the first time to our knowledge, a Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) sensor that is able to operate with a probe power larger than the Brillouin threshold …
We propose using piecewise parabolic phase modulation of the seed laser for suppressing stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in a fiber amplifier. Simulations are run with a 9 m …
We investigate the use of an arbitrary waveform generator to phase-modulate a laser source and externally broaden its linewidth. Through nonlinear optimization in a computer, we find …
