Abstract

One of the largest off resonant nonlinear effects attributed to a third order nonlinear process has been reported in a DAN single crystal core fiber.^1,3 Such fiber, designed for efficient second harmonic generation,³ showed large spectral broadening effects when femtosecond pulses around 625 nm were launched into it. Yamashita et al. compared the observed spectral broadening to that of a standard fused silica fiber and reported an intensity dependent refractive index 17000 times larger than that of fused silica.
