Abstract

The time transformation (TT) technique is used to study the nonlinear pulse reshaping towards triangular pulse (TP) generation by efficiently optimizing the pulse parameters in an erbium-doped chalcogenide fiber amplifier (EDCFA), for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. The effects of input chirp parameter, optical gain, and dipole relaxation time are also depicted in the context of TP generation. The results obtained from the TT approach when compared with that from the nonlinear Schrodinger equation show excellent agreement. The study also reveals that spectral pulse doubling can be achieved at a shorter length when a pre-chirped Gaussian pulse is propagated through the proposed EDCFA.
