    International audienceIn this paper, we investigate the linear and nonlinear properties of GeSbS and AsSe chalcogenide photonic crystal fibers. Through several experimental setups, we have measured the second- and third-order chromatic dispersion, the effective area, losses, birefringence, the nonlinear Kerr coefficient as well as Brillouin and Raman scattering properties

    This memory of thesis s' registered voter in the context of the FUTUR project financed by l' ANR and concerning the development of optical functions for the high bit-rate transmissions in the Network heart and carries on very high rates optical fibers sources generation and the optical chalcogenide microstructured fiber characterization. For this purpose, we study the linear and non-linear characteristics of microstructured chalcogenide fibers conceived and realized in various collaborations within the framework of the ANR FUTUR project. For that a great number of characterizations methods were developed giving a comparison between a standard single mode fiber and these microstructured chalcogenide fibers.For exemple, an interferometric setup for the chromatic dispersion measurement for short sample, or many experimental setup allowing the nonlinear properties characterizations as of these fibers (Raman scattering , Brillouin scattering, nonlinear Kerr Coefficient ). The second part of this memory presents the settling of sinusoidal beat conversion into a high bit rate generation method. It is shown in this manuscript that this technique was exploited with readiest of its limits, by obtaining extremely short pulses and by very high bit-rate. The pulses train at very high rates were characterized by an experimental device SHG-FROG. A demonstration of the multiplication of the bit-rate by two at summer shown by Talbot effect.Ce mémoire de thèse s'inscrit dans le contexte du projet FUTUR financé par l'ANR et concernant le développement de Fonctions optiqUes pour les Transmissions à très haUt débit dans le Réseau coeur et porte sur la génération de sources optiques fibrées très hautes cadences et la caractérisation de fibres optiques microstructurées en verre de Chalcogénure. A cet effet, nous étudions les caractéristiques linéaires et non-linéaires au sein de fibres microstructurées en verre de chalcogénures conçue et réaliser via différentes collaborations dans le cadre du projet de l'ANR FUTUR. Pour cela un grand nombre de méthodes de caractérisations ont été mises au point donnant une comparaison entre une fibre SMF standard et ces fibres microstructurées chalcogénures. Par exemple, un montage interférométrique pour la mesure de la dispersion chromatique pour échantillon court, ou encore de nombreux banc expérimentaux permettant la caractérisations des propriétés non-linéaires des ces fibres (diffusion Raman, diffusion Brillouin, Coefficient non linéaire Kerr...). La seconde partie de ce mémoire présente la mise au point de méthode de conversion d'un battement sinusoïdal en un train d'impulsions hautement cadencé. Il est montré dans ce manuscrit que cette technique a été exploitée au plus prêt de ses limites, par l'obtention d'impulsions extrêmement courtes et par des débits très élevés. Les trains d'impulsions à très hautes cadences ont été caractérisés par un dispositif expérimental SHG-FROG. Une démonstration de la multiplication du débit par deux a été démontrée par l'effet Talbot

    International audienceIn this work, we establish some efficient and practical design rules for the implementation of single-channel ultra-high speed (>160-Gbit/s) telecommunication systems based on dense dispersion management. Moreover, we analyze some of actual implementation issues such as slope compensation scenario, junction losses, polarization mode dispersion and chromatic dispersion fluctuations

    International audienceIn this work, the potential efficiency of a low-loss, tunable second-and third-order dispersion compensating module based on a stretched optical fibre for ultra high-speed telecommunication systems is analysed. Experimental results at a repetition rate of 640 GHz show that precise dispersion compensation could be achieved in the range of +0.038 ps/nm by means of an 11.3 cm maximum stretching of a 48 m long dispersion compensating

    International audienceIn this paper, we report recent progress on the design of all-fibered ultra-high repetition-rate pulse sources for telecommunication applications around 1550 nm. Based on the nonlinear compression of an initial beat-signal in optical fibers through a multiple four-wave mixing process, we theoretically and experimentally demonstrate that this simple technique allows an efficient and accurate design of versatile pulse sources having repetition rates and pulse durations ranging from 20 GHz up to 2 THz and from 10 ps up to 110 fs, respectively

    International audienceIn this work, we report recent progress on the design of all-fibered ultra-high repetition-rate pulse sources for telecommunication applications around 1550 nm. The sources are based on the non-linear compression of an initial beat-signal through a multiple four-wave mixing process taking place into an optical fiber. We experimentally demonstrate real-time monitoring of a 20 GHz pulse source having an integrated phase noise 0.01 radian by phase locking the initial beat note against a reference RF oscillator. Based on this technique, we also experimentally demonstrate a well-separated high-quality 110 fs pulse source having a repetition rate of 2 THz. Finally, we show that with only 1.4 m of standard single mode fiber, we can achieve a twofold increase of the repetition rate, up to 3.4 THz, through the self-imaging Talbot effect. Experimental results are supported by numerical simulations based on the generalized non-linear Schrödinger equation
