Abstract:of the dissertationIn recent years the implementation of Erbium-doped fiber amplifiers allowed to extend high-bit rate transmission to transoceanic distances. But the demand for an increase in transmission capacity is unprecedented and grows continuously. Despite the intrinsically small values of the nonlinear coefficient for silica, the nonlinear effects in optical fibers can be observed even at low powers considering that the light is confined in a relative small area over long (i.e. transoceanic) interactio… Show more
