It is shown that the Doppler effect can greatly enhance the dispersion and thus create the bistable behaviour or greatly increase the bistable region, which has been known as the positive Doppler effect on optical bistability. In addition, we find that a positive Doppler effect can change optical bistability from the hybrid dispersion-gain type to a dispersive type.展开更多

This fiber possesses a higher and flatter Raman gain efficiency coefficient curve rR=gR/Aeff over a specified band of wavelength than a conventional fiber. Therefore, it is a good candidate of gain me- dium for a flat, broad gain band fiber Raman amplifier. It was numerically demonstrated that for the Raman gain efficiency rR, relative fluctuations of less than 2.2% and 5.7% are achievable in the C (1530―1565 nm) band and L (1565―1625 nm) band, respectively.展开更多
