Bidirectional soliton spectral tunneling effects in the regime of optical event horizon

Abstract

We study the cross-phase-modulation-induced soliton spectral shifting in the regime of the optical event horizon. The perturbed soliton to either red-shifting or blue-shifting is controllable, which could evoke bidirectional soliton spectral tunneling effects.

Dark solitons manipulation using optical event horizon

Zhixiang Deng, Jun Liu, Xianwei Huang +2 more

We demonstrate that the optical event horizon can provide an effective technique to actively control the propagation properties of a dark soliton with another weak probe wave. Careful power adjustment of the probe wave enables the black soliton converted into a gray one with varying grayness through the nonlinear interaction, corresponding to a nearly adiabatic variation of the soliton's speed. The sign of the phase angle for the newly formed gray soliton at optical event horizon is significantly dependent on the frequency of the launched probe wave. Linear-stability analysis of dark solitons under the perturbation of a weak probe wave is performed to clarify the intrinsic mechanism of the nonlinear interaction. The probe wave manipulated collisional dynamics between both dark solitons are investigated as an analogue of the combined white-hole and black-hole horizons which provides some insights into exploring the transition between integrable and non-integrable systems.

Manipulating light by light

Ayhan Demircan, Shalva Amiranashvili

We propose and verify a new concept of an all-optical transistor based on cross-phase modulation between a signal pulse (SP) and a control pulse (CP). An effective interaction is achieved if the CP is temporally locked to the SP in an optical event horizon. This enables modification of carrier frequency, energy, and pulse duration of a SP by a considerably weaker CP.

Controlling Light by Light with an Optical Event Horizon

Ayhan Demircan, Shalva Amiranashvili, Günter Steinmeyer

A novel concept for an all-optical transistor is proposed and verified numerically. This concept relies on cross-phase modulation between a signal and a control pulse. Other than previous approaches, the interaction length is extended by temporally locking control and the signal pulse in an optical event horizon, enabling continuous modification of the central wavelength, energy, and duration of a signal pulse by an up to sevenfold weaker control pulse. Moreover, if the signal pulse is a soliton it may maintain its solitonic properties during the switching process. The proposed all-optical switching concept fulfills all criteria for a useful optical transistor in [Nat. Photon. 4, 3 (2010)], in particular, fan-out and cascadability, which have previously proven as the most difficult to meet.

Spatial Thirring-type solitons via electromagnetically induced transparency

Inbal Friedler, Gershon Kurizki, Oren Cohen +1 more

We show that the giant Kerr nonlinearity in the regime of electromagnetically induced transparency in vapor can give rise to the formation of Thirring-type spatial solitons, which are supported solely by cross-phase modulation.

Effect of synchronous modulation on the soliton optical phase

Olivier Leclerc, E. Desurvire

We show that soliton regeneration through synchronous modulation reduces both amplitude and optical phase noise in a squeezinglike fashion. However, control of optical phase noise is found not to be sufficient to permit error-free phase-shift-keyed soliton transmission, as confirmed by numerical simulations.
