Mid-infrared rogue wave generation in chalcogenide fibers

摘要

The supercontinuum generation and rogue wave generation in a step-index chalcogenide fiber are numerically investigated by solving the generalized nonlinear Schrodinger equation. Two noise models have been used to model the noise of the pump laser pulses to investigate the consistency of the noise modeling in rogue wave generation. First noise model is 0.1% amplitude noise which has been used in the report of rogue wave generation. Second noise model is the widely used one-photon-per-mode-noise and phase diffusion-noise. The results show that these two commonly used noise models have a good consistency in the simulations of rogue wave generation. The results also show that if the pump laser pulses carry more noise, the chance of a rogue wave with a high peak power becomes higher. This is harmful to the SC generation by using picosecond lasers in the chalcogenide fibers.
