Dark-pulse propagation in optical fibers
(American Physical Society, 1988-01-04)
We report measurements of the reshaping of 0.3-psec dark pulses due to their passage through 10 m of single-mode optical fiber. The measurements were performed as a function of intensity and the observed strong reshaping ...
Ultrafast light-controlled optical-fiber modulator
(AIP Publishing, 1987-04-06)
We report the ultrafast operation of a light-controlled optical-fiber modulator, driven by subpicosecond, compressed, and amplified (6000 A) dye laser pulses, controlling frequency doubled (5320 A) yttrium aluminum garnet ...
Observation of the formation of an optical intensity shock and wave breaking in the nonlinear propagation of pulses in optical fibers
(American Physical Society, 1989-01-30)
We have observed the formation of an optical intensity shock and the subsequent wave breaking in the nonlinear propagation of 1-psec pulses in an optical fiber. The wave breaking manifests itself as the appearance of ...
Nonlinear picosecond-pulse propagation through optical fibers with positive group velocity dispersion
(American Physical Society, 1981-09-28)
The predictions of the nonlinear Schrodinger 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 correlation technique based on pulse compression, ...
