Anitha. P, Manimegalai. A . Ultrashort Pulse Generation at 1550 nm using a Tapered Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF). International Journal of Computer Applications. 74, 7 ( July 2013), 11-14. DOI=10.5120/12896-9765
This dissertation aims at generating extremely short laser pulses, popularly referred to as UltraShort Pulses (USPs) whose pulse duration ranges from Pico second to a few Femto seconds. In this work, we attempt at a novel design of a class of fiber called photonic crystal fiber (PCF) new wherein the optical properties, namely, dispersion and nonlinearity decrease exponentially along the propagation direction.
