31Mamyshev 2R regenerator — The Mamyshev 2R regenerator is an all optical regenerator used in optical communications. In 1998, Pavel V. Mamyshev of Bell Labs proposed and patented the use of the self phase modulation (SPM) for single channel optical pulse reshaping and re… …
32Two-photon absorption — (TPA) is the simultaneous absorption of two photons of identical or different frequencies in order to excite a molecule from one state (usually the ground state) to a higher energy electronic state. The energy difference between the involved… …
33Резонанс Фано — тип резонанса с асимметричным профилем, возникающего в результате интерференции двух волновых процессов. Природа интерферирующих процессов может быть самой различной, поэтому такой резонанс носит универсальный характер и появляется в различных… …
34Kerr-lens modelocking — (KLM) is a method of modelocking lasers via a nonlinear optical process known as the optical Kerr effect . This method allows the generation of pulses of light with a duration as short as a few femtoseconds.The optical Kerr effect is a process… …
35Fiber laser — A fiber laser or fibre laser is a laser in which the active gain medium is an optical fiber doped with rare earth elements such as erbium, ytterbium, neodymium, dysprosium, praseodymium, and thulium. They are related to doped fiber amplifiers,… …
36Kuzyk quantum gap — The Kuzyk quantum gap is a discrepancy between the maximum value of the nonlinear optical susceptibility allowed by quantum mechanics and the highest values actually observed in real molecules. The highest possible value (in theory) is known as… …
37Photon — This article is about the elementary particle of light. For other uses, see Photon (disambiguation). Photon Photons emitted in a coherent beam from a laser Composition Elementary particle …
38Modelocking — Mode locking is a technique in optics by which a laser can be made to produce pulses of light of extremely short duration, on the order of picoseconds (10 12s) or femtoseconds (10 15s).The basis of the technique is to induce a fixed phase… …
39Mode-locking — is a technique in optics by which a laser can be made to produce pulses of light of extremely short duration, on the order of picoseconds (10−12 s) or femtoseconds (10−15 s). The basis of the technique is to induce a fixed phase… …
40Cross-polarized wave generation — Fig. 1. Cross polarized wave (XPW) generation is a nonlinear optical process that can be classified in the group of frequency degenerate [four wave mixing] processes. It can take place only in media with anisotropy of third order nonlinearity. As …
