Abstract

In order to study the red-shifted radiation generation in a photonic crystal fiber with two zero dispersion wavelengths in the anomalous dispersion region,the nonlinear propagation and red-shifted radiation generation of a femtosecond laser pulse in a photonic crystal fiber were simulated with the split-step Fourier algorithm. The effect of pulse width, center wavelength and input peak power of the pump pulse on the red-shifted radiation was analyzed. It is found the phenomenon of redshifted radiation of Raman soliton caused by higher-order dispersion occurs when the pump wavelength is located in the anomalous dispersion region nearby the second zero dispersion wavelength. The intensity of red-shifted radiation components can be enhanced with the input peak power or pulse width increased. In addition,the three-order dispersion effect also has an important effect on the red-shifted radiation. The intensity of red-shifted radiation components can be further enhanced by increasing the three-order dispersion coefficient.
