Abstract
We propose a new method to identify the region where mode-locked pulses can be generated by nonlinear polarization rotation effect in optical fibers. The method relies on the Jones matrix of an optical fiber installed within a fiber resonator, which characterizes nonlinear effects and birefringence resulting from bending and twisting. Using the acquired Jones matrix, we enhance theoretical analysis of stable mode-locking regions. We demonstrate that the proposed method can predicts experimental mode-locking regions.
期刊介绍:
Innovations in optical fiber technology are revolutionizing world communications. Newly developed fiber amplifiers allow for direct transmission of high-speed signals over transcontinental distances without the need for electronic regeneration. Optical fibers find new applications in data processing. The impact of fiber materials, devices, and systems on communications in the coming decades will create an abundance of primary literature and the need for up-to-date reviews.
Optical Fiber Technology: Materials, Devices, and Systems is a new cutting-edge journal designed to fill a need in this rapidly evolving field for speedy publication of regular length papers. Both theoretical and experimental papers on fiber materials, devices, and system performance evaluation and measurements are eligible, with emphasis on practical applications.
