Ultra Highly Nonlinear AsSe Chalcogenide Holey Fiber for Nonlinear Applications

oral session 10.1: " Glasses for Nonlinear Processes and Amplification "; International audience; We report the characterizations of an AsSe chalcogenide holey fiber including loss, dispersion, effective area and nonlinear coefficient. The fiber exhibits a record Kerr nonlinearity of 15000 W-1km-1, which allows great potential for nonlinear applications.
