A topical review of numerical and experimental studies of supercontinuum generation in
photonic crystal fiber is presented over the full range of experimentally reported parameters …

The history of the proposal that solitons be used for optical fiber communications and of the
technical developments toward making soliton transmission practical is reviewed. The …

This book provides a comprehensive account of fiber-optic communication systems. The 3rd
edition of this book is used worldwide as a textbook in many universities. This 4th edition …

Spatiotemporal mode coupling in highly multimode physical systems permits new routes for
exploring complex instabilities and forming coherent wave structures. We present here the …

An efficient algorithm, which exhibits a fourth-order global accuracy, for the numerical
solution of the normal and generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equations is presented. It has …

In nonlinear dynamical systems, qualitatively distinct phenomena occur depending
continuously on the size of the bounded domain containing the system. For nonlinear …

Pulsation is a universal phenomenon that exists in diverse fields. For nonlinear optics, the
soliton pulsating behavior can be meaningful for fundamental physics and industrial …

We study the generation of supercontinua in air–silica microstructured fibers by both
nanosecond and femtosecond pulse excitation. In the nanosecond experiments, a 300-nm …

We study the nonlinear propagation of femtosecond pulses in the anomalous dispersion
region of microstructured fibers, where soliton fission mechanisms play an important role …

In this volume, six review articles which cover a broad range of topics of current interest in
modern optics are included. The first article by S. Saltiel, AA Sukhorukov and YS Kivshar …
