Femtosecond soliton amplification in nonlinear dispersive traps and soliton dispersion management

Abstract

The nonlinear pulse propagation in an optical fibers with varying parameters is investigated. The capture of moving in the frequency domain femtosecond colored soliton by a dispersive trap formed in an amplifying fiber makes it possible to accumulate an additional energy and to reduce significantly the soliton pulse duration. Nonlinear dynamics of the chirped soliton pulses in the dispersion managed systems is also investigated. The methodology developed does provide a systematic way to generate infinite ``ocean'' of the chirped soliton solutions of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NSE) with varying coefficients.Comment: 7 pages, 10 figures, RevTe
