Soliton mode locking by nonlinear Faraday rotation

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We propose nonlinear Faraday rotation as a mechanism for achieving stable polarization mode locking of a soliton laser. We analyze by perturbation theory and beam-propagation simulations the interplay between bandwidth-limited gain, gain dichroism, and linear and nonlinear Faraday rotation.
