Quantum effects in non linear optics

2007 Quantum Electronics and Laser Science Conference, 2007
Optical non linear interactions changing the statistics of a light field are often counteracted by dissipative processes. Artificial structuring of the non linear medium can reduce dissipation and enhance the effect of the non linearity.

Non‐linearity in the cost‐effectiveness frontier

Health Economics, 2006
AbstractConventional cost‐effectiveness decision rules rely on the assumptions that all health care programmes are divisible and exhibit constant returns to scale for a homogeneous population; hence, the path between adjacent programmes on a cost‐effectiveness frontier must be linear. In this paper we build a framework to analyse non‐linear ‘expansion’

Non-Linear Effects in Configurable Antenna

Radioelectronics and Communications Systems, 2018
Current-technology different data transmission standards communication systems are commonly built with application of configurable antennas. Non-linear components including in radiating structure of antenna allows to expand the antenna functionability (operating frequency change, modification of the radiation pattern, change of polarization, input ...

Polarization Effects on the Non-Linearity of a Highly Non-Linear Fiber

Fiber and Integrated Optics, 2015
AbstractThe effective non-linear parameter of a highly non-linear optical fiber was measured using the four-wave mixing effect. A value of γ = 10.6 W–1/km was obtained for a small wavelength separation between pump and signal waves, whereas for a large wavelength separation, a value of = 8γ/9 = 9.4 W–1/km was found. This value corresponds to an average

Democracy and growth : is the effect non-linear? [PDF]

open access: possibleEconomic Research Guardian, 2008
The paper provides a survey of theoretical and empirical literature on non-linear impact of democracy on economic growth. First, it looks at two main approaches to the non-linearity: the U-shape and the inverse U-shape. Then it proceeds by looking at the specifics of hybrid regimes and tries to understand, whether the results could be driven by ...

The effects of non‐linear kinematics in optimal evasion

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, 1983
AbstractThe effects of non‐linear kinematics on optimal evasive strategies from a pursuer guided by proportional navigation are investigated in a plane. Non‐linear analysis is mandatory since, for certain values of system parameters and initial conditions, linearized kinematic models are not valid.
