Abstract:A proper amount of group delay dispersion of a dispersion compensating fiber or a single mode fiber reduces chirping of the optical pulse generated by an electroabsorption modulator. Evaluation of the amount of dispersive wave (nonsoliton components) contained in the output of the fiber by means of the inverse scattering transform provides the condition to minimize the dispersive wave generation although it does not generally agree with the condition to minimize the pulse width.Index Terms-Eigenvalues/eigenfun… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
