GENERATION OF BROADBAND COHERENT LASER PULSES BASED ON ADIABATIC FOUR-WAVE MIXING IN WAVEGUIDES AND FIBER

摘要

The technology disclosed in this patent document can be used to implement an optical device for generating broadband optical pulses, including an optical waveguide having different waveguide structures at different locations along the optical waveguide and with varying dimensions or pressure gradient that change adiabatically along the different locations to enable non-linear four wave mixing over a broad spectral range.
