Abstract

Pulse compression is a well-known technique to obtain short pulse duration and broad spectrum. While ultrashort laser pulses are finding many applications in ultrafast optics, broad coherent optical spectra are attractive to telecommunications applications such as dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) and chirped-tpulse WDM.¹ There are three main methods for pulse compression: high-order soliton compression, self-phase modulation in a normally dispersive medium followed by dispersion compensation, and adiabatic soliton compression (ASC).^2,3
