Transmission of stationary nonlinear optical pulses in dispersive dielectric fibers. II. Normal dispersion

Hasegawa, Akira, Tappert, Frederick·1973·Applied Physics Letters

Abstract

Theoretical calculations supported by numerical simulations show that utilization of the nonlinear dependence of the index of refraction on intensity makes possible the transmission of picosecond optical pulses without distortion in dielectric fiber waveguides with group velocity dispersion. In the case of normal dispersion (∂2ω/∂k2 < 0) discussed here [the case of anomalous dispersion (∂2ω/∂k2 > 0) was discussed in an earlier letter], the stationary pulse is a ``dark'' pulse or envelope shock. Numerical simulations show that such pulses are stable under the influence of small perturbations, white noise, or absorption. Important considerations relating to the practical applications of both ``bright'' and ``dark'' pulses are also discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
