In this paper we experimentally show parametric amplification and wavelength conversion in a custom manufactured dual-core highly nonlinear fiber. On-off gain > 10 dB and conversion efficiencies be…
We present first fiber Bragg grating (FBG) inscribed in polarization maintaining (PM) optical fiber with artificially anisotropic core achieved by an appropriate distribution of discrete germanium-…
To predict the behavior of high power pulsed lasers, fine numerical simulations of nonlinear propagation of short chirped pulses in fiber amplifiers are needed. In particular, the gain used in the …
