Journal ArticleDOI
Modulational Instability and Parametric Amplification Induced by Loss Dispersion in Optical Fibers
TL;DR: It is shown that modulational instability may arise even in the normal group-velocity dispersion regime of an optical fiber when the fiber loss (gain) varies depending on the wavelength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polarization-stable and single-frequency fiber lasers
TL;DR: In this article, a Fabry-Perot cavity composed of a non-PM erbium-doped fiber and Faraday-rotator mirrors (FRMs) is proposed to stabilize the polarization-mode competition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrahigh sensitivity single‐photon detector using a Si avalanche photodiode for the measurement of ultraweak biochemiluminescence

TL;DR: In this article, a Si avalanche photodiode (APD) detector using a trans-impedance type front-end circuit was employed in order to achieve a high signal-to-noise ratio.
Journal ArticleDOI
All-optical wavelength conversion of 500-fs pulse trains by using a nonlinear-optical loop mirror composed of a highly nonlinear DSF
TL;DR: In this paper, a design guideline for ultrafast wavelength conversion using a nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM) composed of a dispersion-shifted fiber (DSF) is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bismuth-oxide-based nonlinear fiber with a high SBS threshold and its application to four-wave-mixing wavelength conversion using a pure continuous-wave pump
TL;DR: In this paper, the unique and practical benefits of the use of bismuth-oxide-based nonlinear fiber (Bi-NLF) in implementing a four-wave-mixing (FWM)-based wavelength converter for fiber-optic-communication system applications are experimentally demonstrated.
