Nonlinear switching in a Bragg grating with periodic ξ(3)

Abstract

We demonstrate numerically the nonlinear switching in a Bragg grating with a periodically modulated nonlinearity. Improved functionalities can be obtained through a π phase-shift between the linear and nonlinear gratings.

Design tolerances of nonlinear Bragg-grating couplers optimised for all-optical slow-light switching

Sangwoo Ha, Andrey A. Sukhorukov, Yuri S. Kivshar

We study the tolerances in the phase shift between the Bragg gratings in coupled waveguides, for optimisation of power-controlled switching and slowing down of optical pulses, and cancellation of dispersion-induced pulse broadening through enhanced nonlinear self-action.

We suggest novel opportunities for power-controlled switching and slowing down of optical pulses in coupled waveguides with phase-shifted Bragg gratings, combined with cancellation of dispersion-induced pulse broadening through enhanced nonlinear self-action in the slow-light regime.

Bistability of ultrashort pulses in FBG under different nonlinearity profiles

Paulo Victor Ferreira Pinto, T. M. Pessoa, J. M. Jacinto +3 more

In this work, we studied the optical bistability of Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) under nonlinear regime, considering three increasing and decreasing profiles of nonlinearity: linear, quadratic and exponential. We varied the nonlinearity range in each profile, and obtained different curves of bistability and reflectivity. We analyzed the powers [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], as well as the width of the photonic band gap ([Formula: see text] of each device under different nonlinearity profiles, and we observed the changes in reflectivity of the FBG. The power intensities [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] obtained for the bistability of decreasing profiles were lower than those obtained for the increasing profiles, and the values of [Formula: see text] were also lower in decreasing profiles, which is useful for optical switching applications.
