Linear multimode optical systems have enabled clean experimental observations and the
applications of numerous phenomena that continually extend the boundaries of wave …

Space-division multiplexing (SDM) uses multiplicity of space channels to increase capacity
for optical communication. It is applicable for optical communication in both free space and …

Optical communication technology has been advancing rapidly for several decades,
supporting our increasingly information-driven society and economy. Much of this progress …

Multimode fiber (MMF) lasers are emerging as a remarkable testbed to study nonlinear
spatiotemporal physics with potential applications spanning from high energy pulse …

We provide a perspective overview of the emerging field of nonlinear optics in multimode
optical fibers. These fibers enable new methods for the ultrafast light-activated control of …

The overall goal of photonics research is to understand and control light in new and richer
ways to facilitate new and richer applications. Many major developments to this end have …

In recent years, space-division multiplexed (SDM) transmission in multimode and multicore
fiber structures has been attracting growing interest as a mean of scaling the capacity of the …

Novel fundamental notions helping in the interpretation of the complex dynamics of
nonlinear systems are essential to our understanding and ability to exploit them. In this work …

Space-division multiplexing (SDM) has been intensively proposed in recent years to
overcome the capacity limitations of the current single-mode fiber infrastructure and to …

We study intermodal four-wave mixing (FWM) in few-mode fibers in the presence of
birefringence fluctuations and random linear mode coupling. Two different intermodal FWM …
