Zero-Gain Slow Light in Optical Fibres

Luc Thévenaz A, Sanghoon Chin, Miguel González‐Herráez

Published Sep 1, 2006• 0 citations
Publisher

Abstract

Generation of optical delays with minor amplitude change are realized through the superposition of gain and loss profiles generated by stimulated Brillouin scattering. It results in synthesized spectral profiles identical to an ideal electromagnetically-induced transparency.

Zero-gain slow & fast light propagation in an optical fiber

Sanghoon Chin, Miguel González‐Herráez, Luc Thévenaz A

Slow & fast light with null amplification or loss of a light signal is experimentally demonstrated. This novel method for producing zero-gain slow & fast light takes advantage of the great flexibility of stimulated Brillouin scattering in optical fibers to generate synthesized gain spectra. Generation of optical delays and advancements with minor amplitude change is realized through the superposition of gain and loss profiles showing very different spectral widths, resulting in a synthesized spectral profile identical to an ideal electromagnetically-induced transparency.
