Ultrahigh Soliton Pulse Compression Through Liquid Crystal Photonic Crystal Fiber

Self-similar picosecond pulse compression for supercontinuum generation at mid-infrared wavelength in silicon strip waveguides

“…The width of pulse is compressed from 1 ps to 26.61 fs, along with F c = 37.58. The peak power of pulse is increased from 1.76 to 65.92 W. We use the compression quality factor Q c , which is defined as Q c = P out /(P in F c ), to evaluate the pulse compression performance [16,39]. For the ideal case, Q c is 1.…”

“…Several nonlinear pulse compression schemes have been proposed to obtain ultrashort pulses from much longer pulses [13][14][15][16][17][18]. Among them, self-similar pulse compression can realize large compression factors without generation of pedestal in the short nonlinear media.…”
