In recent years considerable attention has been devoted to the merging of radio frequency
and optical fiber technologies aiming to the distribution of millimeter-wave (mm-wave) …

Elastic optical networks (EON) have been proposed to meet the network capacity and
dynamicity challenges. Hardware and software resource optimization and re-configurability …

Microresonator frequency combs harness the nonlinear Kerr effect in an integrated optical
cavity to generate a multitude of phase-locked frequency lines. The line spacing can reach …

* The only book describing applications of nonlinear fiber optics* Two new chapters on the
latest developments: highly nonlinear fibers and quantum applications* Coverage of …

Over the past four years, there has been a surge of activity in the supercontinuum field since
the introduction of various types of microstructure fibers. The main reason for this great …

Optical fibres have for almost three decades been fabricated of solid glass. It was, therefore,
a radical change that took place, when researchers in the late 90's started to fabricate hair …

Supercontinuum generation is investigated experimentally and numerically in a highly
nonlinear index-guiding photonic crystal optical fiber in a regime in which self-phase …

Broader bandwidths, denser channel spacing, and higher signal intensities all makes
nonlinear effects more critical to the performance of telecommunications systems. This …

We review supercontinuum generation in optical fibers for particular cases where the
nonlinear spectral broadening is induced by pump radiation from fiber-format sources …

▪ Abstract The development of microstructured optical fibers has led to the realization of
many optical properties in fiber form that were not previously attainable. This chapter …
