WEN Qiao, ZHANG Bin
2005, 29(1): 68-71.
Abstract:
The analytical expressions for the mode coefficients and M2-factor of partially coherent flat-topped beams which can be combined by independent Hermite-Gaussian beams have been derived.The mode decomposition and mode composition of partially coherent flat-topped beams have been analyzed.The basis Gaussian mode decreases and the M2-factor increases with the beam order M and the parameter w0/ν0 increasing.The M2-factor and the rectangular shape of the flat-topped beams combined by the independent Hermite-Gaussian beams can not be obtained at the same time.If an approach rectangular shape of the intensity distribution of partially coherent flat-topped beams is desired,the M2-factor must be large.If the small value of M2-factor is required,the strictly rectangular shape of the intensity distribution can not be obtained.In many practical cases,the partially coherent flat-topped beams can be combined by the superposition of the independent Hermite-Gaussian beams with the proper choice of the beam waist and the power content.

2005, 29(1): 109-112.
Abstract:
Taking the transmission effect of Gaussian pulse with initial chirp passing through a single-mode fiber as an example,the respective relations between linear initial chirp and first-order and high-order dispersion function of single-mode fiber are discussed systematically by means of theoretical analysis and numerical calculation.The sphere and conditions of applying initial chirp to dispersion compensation are pointed out.In a second order dispersion and third order dispersion compensation optical fiber links system,40Gbit/s Gaussian pulse transmission is simulated.It is concluded that as the second order dispersion compensation can avoid pulse broadening,the third order dispersion compensation can not only avoid pulse broadening but also eliminate pulse edges oscillating and temporal shift of pulse peak.
