CONVERSIONS DE FREQUENCE ULTRA LARGE BANDE PAR MELANGE A QUATRE ONDES INTERMODAL EN CASCADE DANS LES FIBRES MULTIMODES
2017
International audience; Nous mettons en évidence des effets de conversion spectrale paramétrique avec des décalages spectraux très importants (~200THz) dans une fibre à gradient d'indice qui, pompée avec une source laser picoseconde à 1064nm, supporte quatre modes de propagation. À travers des études expérimentales, analytiques et numériques détaillées, nous montrons que les multiples raies paramétriques sont générées par un processus en cascade complexe faisant intervenir des mélanges à quatre ondes intermodaux. Les longueurs d'onde paramétriques résultantes s'étendent dans le visible jusqu'à 410nm et dans le proche infrarouge jusqu'à 1355nm. MOTS-CLEFS : dynamique spatio-temporelle ; conv…
Ecologists overestimate the importance of predictor variables in model averaging: a plea for cautious interpretations.
2014
Abstract: Information-theory procedures are powerful tools for multimodel inference and are now standard methods in ecology. When performing model averaging on a given set of models, the importance of a predictor variable is commonly estimated by summing the weights of models where the variable appears, the so-called sum of weights (SW). However, SWs have received little methodological attention and are frequently misinterpreted. We assessed the reliability of SW by performing model selection and averaging on simulated data sets including variables strongly and weakly correlated to the response variable and a variable unrelated to the response. Our aim was to investigate how useful SWs are …
Single-mode Bragg gratings in tapered few-modes and multimode fibers
2019
We propose the implementation of fiber Bragg gratings in tapered few-mode and multimode fibers to accomplish single-mode operation by reducing the core diameter, while preserving the core-cladding structure. The gratings present a single reflection band, and the device shows low insertion losses after the taper fabrication and the fiber Bragg gratings inscription. The excitation of high-order odd modes in the core of the fiber has been identified as the main loss mechanism; it can be prevented by means of symmetric illumination of the fibers. We also demonstrate the excitation of high-order cladding modes (cladding-air modes) along the taper transitions; these modes can be removed without a…
