Experimental control over soliton interaction in optical fiber by pre-shaped input field
2011
Interactions between femtosecond solitons in a nonlinear photonic-crystal fiber are of fundamental interest. But many practical applications would abound if solitons could be arbitrarily superposed into multiples in the fiber. Here, we numerically and experimentally demonstrate a first step towards this aim, the creation of a soliton pair with arbitrary relative phase, delay, and frequency throughout almost the entire output parameter space with the aid of a pre-shaped fiber input field.
Stable coupled conjugate solitary waves in optical fibers.
1998
Four-wave mixing of an intense continuous-wave pump beam with an ultrashort soliton signal in an optical fiber is theoretically analyzed. A novel class of stable two-color coupled solitary waves is found. These vector parametric solitons represent the optimal frequency conversion of an ultrashort pulse. © 1998 Optical Society of America.
Analytical design of dispersion-managed fiber system with map strength 1.65
2003
Abstract We present an easy analytical method for designing dispersion-managed fiber systems with map strength of 1.65, where the transmission lines have minimal pulse–pulse interactions.
Multi-peak-spectra generation with Cherenkov radiation in a non-uniform single mode fiber
2014
We propose, by means of numerical simulations, a simple method to design a non-uniform standard single mode fiber to generate spectral broadening in the form of "ad-hoc" chosen peaks from dispersive waves. The controlled multi-peak generation is possible by an on/off switch of Cherenkov radiation, achieved by tailoring the fiber dispersion when decreasing the cladding diameter by segments. The interplay between the fiber dispersion and the soliton self-frequency shift results in discrete peaks of efficiently emitted Cherenkov radiation from low order solitons, despite the small amount of energy contained in a pulse. These spectra are useful for applications that demand low power bell-shaped…
Optimization of wavelength division multiplexing in N×160Gbit/s terrestrial transmission systems
2005
Abstract We analyze, from an engineering viewpoint, the prospects of an exploitable upgrade of terrestrial fiber systems based on standard monomode fiber and dispersion compensating units, for future N × 160 Gbit/s transmission systems. We show that dispersion swing, average dispersion and input pulse power are the key parameters that govern the system performances. We show that whenever the dispersion swing is arranged in a symmetrical setup and the compensation ratio is optimized accordingly, one may obtain a significant improvement of the transmission performances.
All-optical simultaneous polarization attraction and intensity regeneration of a 40-Gbit/s RZ signal
2011
We experimentally report the dual all-optical instantaneous regeneration of both the state of polarization and the intensity profile of a 40 Gbit/s Return-to-Zero telecommunication signal by means of a unique segment fiber.
Lepton Universality Test in the Photoproduction ofe−e+Versusμ−μ+Pairs on a Proton Target
2015
In view of the significantly different proton charge radius extracted from muonic hydrogen Lamb shift measurements as compared to electronic hydrogen spectroscopy or electron-scattering experiments, we study in this Letter the photoproduction of a lepton pair on a proton target in the limit of very small momentum transfer as a way to provide a test of the lepton universality when extracting the proton charge form factor. By detecting the recoiling proton in the γp→l^{-}l^{+}p reaction, we show that a measurement of a ratio of e^{-}e^{+}+μ^{-}μ^{+} over e^{-}e^{+} cross sections with an absolute precision of 7×10^{-4} would allow for a test to distinguish, at the 3σ level, between the two di…
Low-energy doubly virtual Compton scattering from dilepton electroproduction on a nucleon
2020
We propose a new way to experimentally determine the subleading low-energy structure constant of doubly virtual Compton scattering on a proton. Such empirical determination will reduce the theoretical model error in estimates of the hadronic correction to the muonic hydrogen Lamb shift. We demonstrate that the dilepton forward-backward asymmetry in the e−p→e−pe−e+ process, which can be accessed at electron scattering facilities, yields a large sensitivity to this so far unknown low-energy constant.
Sum rules across the unpolarized Compton processes involving generalized polarizabilities and moments of nucleon structure functions
2018
We derive two new sum rules for the unpolarized doubly virtual Compton scattering process on a nucleon, which establish novel low-$Q^2$ relations involving the nucleon's generalized polarizabilities and moments of the nucleon's unpolarized structure functions $F_1(x,Q^2)$ and $F_2(x,Q^2)$. These relations facilitate the determination of some structure constants which can only be accessed in off-forward doubly virtual Compton scattering, not experimentally accessible at present. We perform an empirical determination for the proton and compare our results with a next-to-leading-order chiral perturbation theory prediction. We also show how these relations may be useful for a model-independent …
Resonant Rayleigh scattering in quantum well structures
1996
Abstract We report continuous wave experiments on resonant Rayleigh scattering (RRS) performed on high quality GaAs AlGaAs quantum well structures. The simultaneous measurement of the resonant Rayleigh scattering and of the photoluminescence excitation (PLE) allows us to resolve very small differences between the two spectra. We show that, even in very good samples, there is a small but detectable Stokes shift of the RRS profile with respect to the PLE. It is also found that the RRS profile has a smaller linewidth and is sensitive to bound exciton transitions which are not detectable in the PLE. We compare our data with previous findings and discuss possible origins of the Stokes shift.
