Nonlinear propagation effects in an AlGaAs Bragg grating filter

Nonlinear propagation effects in an AlGaAs Bragg grating filter
Nonlinear propagation effects in an AlGaAs Bragg grating filter
We present experimental observations of nonlinear propagation effects in an integrated AlGaAs waveguide filter. We demonstrate pulse shaping, pulse compression. and the production of gap solitons within the atop band of the grating for switching powers of ~130 W. This nonlinear behavior is associated with the counterbalancing effects of self-phase modulation and the large dispersion effects introduced by the grating itself.

Abstract

We present experimental observations of nonlinear propagation effects in an integrated AlGaAs waveguide filter. We demonstrate pulse shaping, pulse compression. and the production of gap solitons within the atop band of the grating for switching powers of ~130 W. This nonlinear behavior is associated with the counterbalancing effects of self-phase modulation and the large dispersion effects introduced by the grating itself.
