Dissipative solitons for real world optical solitons

2007 Asia Optical Fiber Communication and Optoelectronics Conference, 2007
Efficient use of nonlinear dissipation enables the formation of robust optical pulses, with unique soliton properties. This way, exceptional stability of mode-locked lasers, formation of "soliton molecules", and optical regeneration schemes can be better understood.

Perturbations of Optical Solitons and Quasi-Solitons

Journal of Electromagnetic Waves and Applications, 2000
Summary: The multiple-scale perturbation method is developed in a new way to study the propagation of pulses through an optical fiber described by a perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We show that, by introducing a new proper definition of the phase of the soliton, one can obtain the corrections to the pulse where the usual soliton perturbation ...

Optical solitons: Perspectives and applications

Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2000
This article serves as an introduction to the focus issue on optical solitons. After a short review of the history of solitons and the field of integrable systems, a brief overview of the development of nonlinear optics and optical solitons is provided.

Perturbations of optical solitons

Physical Review A, 1993
A perturbation theory is developed to investigate the effects of various perturbations on soliton propagation down an optical fiber. The theory is formulated within the «natural» framework of inverse scattering theory. The perturbative effects of third-order dispersion, the soliton self-frequency shift, bandwidth-limited gain, periodic modulation, and ...

Control of Optical Soliton Interactions

Optical Fiber Technology, 1995
Abstract We review the theory of optical (temporal and spatial) solitons in nonlinear optical fibers and waveguides and we apply the results to analyze the process of soliton interaction. We show that several approaches with different degrees of complexity may be employed in order to describe the multiple soliton dynamics.

Soliton interaction in optical fibers

Optics Letters, 1987
Interactions of solitons generated by pairs of optical pulses are studied using the perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger equation, which models nonlinear optical pulses in a monomode fiber. We examine the mechanism of the soliton interaction both analytically and numerically and show that a bound 2-soliton splits into individual solitons traveling with ...

Interchannel interaction of optical solitons

Physical Review E, 2003
We study interaction between two solitons from different frequency channels propagating in an optical fiber. The interaction may be viewed as an inelastic collision, in which energy is lost to continuous radiation due to small but finite third order dispersion.

Optical Solitons

1992
This book describes both the theoretical and experimental aspects of optical soliton generation, soliton properties and the application of optical solitons to all-optical high-bit-rate communications. Only temporal optical solitons in fibres are considered.

Solitons in optical fibres and the soliton laser

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1985
Abstract In this paper, I describe both fundamental and higher-order solitons in optical fibres, their remarkable properties, and the first experimental observation of them. It will be shown that such solitons are easily created and, once formed, are quite stable in the one-dimensional world of single-mode fibres.

SOLITON–SOLITON INTERACTION IN OPTICAL FIBERS

Journal of Nonlinear Optical Physics & Materials, 1999
In an optical communication system it is necessary to place the solitons close to one another to increase the information carrying capacity of the fiber. The theory of soliton–soliton interaction in a fiber optic communication system, through a single channel, is studied in this paper. In presence of the perturbation terms, the two soliton interaction
