Properties of soliton-soliton collisions

Physical Review A, 1992
The amplitude dependence of the phase shift originating in an overtaking soliton-soliton collision is investigated for solitons that can be described with a Korteweg--de Vries equation and a nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. The size dependence of the interaction regime is also amplitude dependent. Laboratory and numerical experiments are compared with

The Soliton Laser

Optics News, 1984
The soliton laser1 is a novel mode-locked device employing a length of single mode fiber in its feedback loop. Its pulse width can be made to have any desired value, down to a small fraction of a picosecond, through choice of the fiber’s length. Operation is based on the ability of single mode fibers, in the region (λ> 1.3 µm) of negative group ...

Skin solitons

Optics Letters, 2023
Recently, the concept of skin effect has gained considerable attention in the context of non-Hermitian photonics. The experimental realization of Hatano–Nelson systems in optical coupled cavities has provided the opportunity to consider the effect of optical nonlinearity.

Envelope Solitons versus Solitons

Physica Scripta, 2002
A theory involving a correspondence between envelope solitonlike solutions of the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation (GNLSE) and solitonlike solutions of the generalized Korteweg–de Vries equation (GKVdE) is developed within the context of the Madelung's fluid description (fluid counterpart description of the GNLSE). This correspondence, which,

Polarization scattering by soliton–soliton collisions

Optics Letters, 1995
We have discovered experimentally that soliton-soliton collisions in wavelength division multiplexing significantly alter the polarization states of the colliding solitons. Analysis shows that the change in polarization is according to the cross product of the Stokes vectors of the colliding solitons.

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 ...
