Lecture

Pulse Propagation in Nonlinear Fibre Optics

Description

This lecture covers the propagation of pulses in nonlinear and dispersive media, discussing the group velocity dispersion, the N number, and the effects of normal and anomalous dispersion on pulse evolution. It also explores the phenomenon of optical wave breaking and the equilibrium between anomalous dispersion and nonlinearity, leading to the soliton Gaussian. The instructor concludes with a quiz on nonlinear effects in waveguides.
