We present the generation of optical pulse multiplets in the temporal domain from a single pulse using the time-transformation technique for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. The generation of a pair of compressed, well-spaced, and identical Gaussian pulses from a third-order super-Gaussian input pulse when propagated through an anomalous dispersion fiber is reported. Detailed analysis on the effect of variation of input energy, pulse parameters, and optical gain in view of doublet formation leading to the possibility of high effective repetition rate (ERR) at smaller propagating length is reported. The formation of triplets and quadruplets from different input pulse shapes is investigated.

The time transformation (TT) technique is used to study the nonlinear pulse reshaping towards triangular pulse (TP) generation by efficiently optimizing the pulse parameters in an erbium-doped chalcogenide fiber amplifier (EDCFA), for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. The effects of input chirp parameter, optical gain, and dipole relaxation time are also depicted in the context of TP generation. The results obtained from the TT approach when compared with that from the nonlinear Schrodinger equation show excellent agreement. The study also reveals that spectral pulse doubling can be achieved at a shorter length when a pre-chirped Gaussian pulse is propagated through the proposed EDCFA.
