Abstract
We demonstrate experimentally the existence of cross-phase-modulation-induced
modulational instability in the absence of group-velocity mismatch between
the interacting nonlinear dispersive waves. The experiment is performed by
means of a normally dispersive isotropic bimodal fiber. The group-velocity
mismatch between the fundamental and the first-order modes that constitute
the two interacting waves is controlled by wavelength tuning. A strong power
dependence of the modulational instability spectra is observed near the condition
of group-velocity matching.
