Thus, we use an indirect resolution technique based on the use of the iB-function to first decouple the nonlinear partial differential equations that govern the propagation dynamics in this case, and subsequently solve them to propose some prototype solutions. These analytical solutions have been obtained;we check the impact of nonlinearity and dispersion. The interest of this work lies not only in the resolution of the partial differential equations that govern the dynamics of wave propagation in this case since these equations not at all easy to integrate analytically and their analytical solutions are very rare, in other words, we propose analytically the solutions of the nonlinear coupled partial differential equations which govern the dynamics of four-wave mixing in optical fibers.

文摘A series of fluorinated copolyimides containing phthalazinone moieties were prepared from 2,2-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane dianhydride(6FDA),3,3'4,4'-benzophenone-tetracarboxylic dianhydride(BPDA)and2-(4-aminophenyl)-4-[4-(4-aminophenoxyl)phenyl]-2,3-phthalazin-1-one(DHPZ-2NH_2)for making polymeric opticalwaveguides.The resulting copolymers containing 0-50 mo1% BPDA/DHPZ-2NH_2 show good solubility and are soluble insome organic polar aprotic solvents.The copolyimides also present excellent thermal stability.These polymers possess highglass transition temperature higher than 603 K and high decomposition temperature above 742 K determined by differentialscanning calorimetry and thennogravimetric analysis,respectively,under a nitrogen atmosphere.Their refractive indicescould be controlled by varying the ratio of 6FDA and BPDA in the copolymer from 0.5 to 1.0,and the in-plane refractiveindices(n_(TE))range from 1.6366 to 1.6668 and the out-of-plane refractive indices(n_(TM))from 1.6024 to 1.6280 at 632.8 nm.The polymers birefringence(0.0342-0.0388)is almost independent of the 6FDA content of copolymer,which indicated thatthe phthalazinone-containing copolyimides could be suitable to fabricate optical waveguides possessing a low polarizationdependent loss(PDL).

文摘Neodymium-substituted bismuth titanate (Bi3NdTi3O12, BNT) thin films were prepared on quartz substrates by a metal-organic solution deposition process. The crystalline structure was evaluated by X-ray diffraction. Waveguide property was investigated by using prism coupling technique and optical transmittance measurement. The optical nonlinearities of the film were measured by the top-hat Z-scan techniques and a large positive nonlinear refractive index, nonlinear refractive coefficient and two-photon absorption coefficient were determined to be 3.84×10^7 esu, 0.7523 cm^2/GW and 4.81×10^4 cm/GW, respectively. These results reveal that the BNT film may be a kind of new multifunctional materials.
文摘A simple method was deduced for calculat-ing optical constant, optical loss and transmittance per meter of hollow-core optical fiber using data analysis method, ge-ometerical optical and electromagnetic theory. The method was used to study the Na2O-ZnO-GeO2-SiO2-PbO and Sb2O3 sysem. The glasses have nr<1 region. When the core diameter ao is 0. 5mm, the hollow waveguides of the Sb2O3-containing . glass is predicted with minimum loss of 0. 8 dB/m at 940cm-1
