Abstract
For purposes of optical communication and optical memory it is of great interest a generation of fundamental solitons in fibers with a high repetition rate, but existent at present time methods permit to generate solitons at about 100 MHz repetition rate (see,e.g.[1]). We suggest here a method for producing a high repetition rate laser pulse generationin in optical fibers. Unlike the modulation instability method [2,3], this method permits to generate practically uninteracting fundamental solitons in optical fibers. The method is based on the adiabatic amplification of radiation in the fiber. Depending on the initial shape of radiation combined action of amplification, self-phase modulation and dispersion reshapes signal into periodic or chaotic sequence of fundamental solitons.
