Propagation of Short Light Pulses in Nonlinear Birefringent Fibre: Variational Approach

An analytical approach is developed to obtain the solution of coupled Schrödinger equations for polarization components of a solitary wave. Variational analysis allows us to describe optical pulse propagation in fibres with nonlinear birefringence. Conditions for polarization channel switching and l...

Zusammenfassung:An analytical approach is developed to obtain the solution of coupled Schrödinger equations for polarization components of a solitary wave. Variational analysis allows us to describe optical pulse propagation in fibres with nonlinear birefringence. Conditions for polarization channel switching and locking are formulated.
