We experimentally demonstrate an extremely simple technique to achieve pulse advancements in optical fibers by using both spontaneous amplified and stimulated Brillouin scattering. It is shown that the group velocity of a light signal is all-optically cont ...
The accurate mapping of chromatic-dispersion distribution along single-mode optical fibers with the best spatial resolution ever reported is experimentally demonstrated. The method consists of a new way of probing four-wave-mixing (FWM) efficiency along th ...
The dispersive properties of waves are strongly affected by inevitable residual disorder in man-made propagating media, in particular in the slow wave regime. By a direct measurement of the dispersion curve in k space, we show that the nature of the guided ...
Performance monitoring is one of the key features to create self-managed optical networks. Monitoring the characteristics of an optical channel is important for designing robust and reliable optical telecommunication system. This thesis examined the use of ...
We demonstrate a method to achieve an extremely wide and flexible external control of the group velocity of signals as they propagate along an optical fiber. This control is achieved by means of the gain and loss mechanisms of stimulated Brillouin scatteri ...
A method to achieve an extremely wide and flexible control of the group velocity in an optical fiber using stimulated Brillouin scattering is presented. Group velocities below 71,000 km/s on one hand, well exceeding the speed of light in vacuum on the othe ...
A new generation of 10 Gb/s wafer fused VCSELS show high single mode output in excess of 2mW at 80 degrees C (6mW at 20 degrees C) in the 1310 nm band and 1.5mW at 80 degrees C (4 mW at 20 degrees C) in the 1550 nm band. Error free transmission over 10 km ...
The polarization properties of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) amplification or attenuation in standard single-mode fibers are examined through vectorial analysis, simulation and experiment. Vector propagation equations for the signal wave, incorpora ...
The equations that govern the temporal evolution of two photons in the Schrödinger picture are derived, taking into account the effects of loss, group-velocity dispersion, temporal phase modulation, linear coupling among different optical modes, and four-w ...
A new approach to monitoring surface waters using distributed fiber optic temperature sensing is presented, allowing resolutions of temperature of 0.01°C every meter along a fiber optic cable of up to 10,000 m in length. We illustrate the potential of this ...
