All-optical signal processing is an approach used to dramatically decrease power
consumption and speed up the performance of next-generation optical telecommunications …

Publisher Summary This chapter reviews all-optical nonlinear signal processing devices that
relate to both chalcogenide glasses and highly nonlinear fibers, using both phase-and …

Isotope shifts in the nuclear charge radius of even and odd calcium isotopes are calculated
within the nuclear shell model. The model space includes all configurations of nucleons in …

We demonstrate self-seeded generation of a broadband comb in a highly nonlinear fiber
resonator. When pumped with a cw laser, the fiber cavity generates a comb with two …

The current status of fiber based optical parametric oscillators is presented with a focus on
pulsed systems employing microstructure fibers. It is shown based on standard expressions …

Tunable optical delay lines have many applications for high-performance optical switching
and signal processing. Slow light has emerged as an enabling technology for achieving …

In this paper the quantum noise properties of phase-insensitive and phase-sensitive
parametric processes are studied. Formulas for the field-quadrature and photon-number …

We demonstrate, both experimentally and numerically, all-optical mode and wavelength
conversion both within the C-band and between the C-and L-bands. This is achieved by …

Recent progress in low-noise optical amplification and signal processing has raised
prospects of practical devices operating below the conventional quantum limit. We review …

Germano-silicate glass fiber containing gold nanoparticles was developed by modified
chemical vapor deposition and solution do** processes. Pum** with 488nm Argon ion …
