Deterministic optical rogue waves.
Experimental observations of rare giant pulses or rogue waves were done in the output intensity of an optically injected semiconductor laser. The long-tailed probability distribution function of the pulse amplitude displays clear non-Gaussian features that confirm the rogue wave character of the intensity pulsations. Simulations of a simple rate equation model show good qualitative agreement wi...
متن کاملOptical Dark Rogue Wave.
Photonics enables to develop simple lab experiments that mimic water rogue wave generation phenomena, as well as relativistic gravitational effects such as event horizons, gravitational lensing and Hawking radiation. The basis for analog gravity experiments is light propagation through an effective moving medium obtained via the nonlinear response of the material. So far, analogue gravity kinem...
متن کاملDelay-induced resonances in an optical system with feedback.
We study the influence of the delay time in the response of a delayed feedback system to external periodic driving. The nonlinear system we consider is a semiconductor laser with optical feedback operating in the low-frequency fluctuation regime. We numerically examine the consequences of varying the external cavity length of the system when a weak modulation is introduced through the laser's p...
متن کاملOptical rogue waves on demand
Among the myriad of nonlinear optical effects, supercontinuum generation is perhaps the most visually stunning and useful in applications ranging from tomography to frequency metrology. When a high-intensity optical pulse propagates through a nonlinear dielectric medium, its spectrum broadens, with the degree of broadening depending on the strength of the interaction. If the interaction is stro...
متن کاملRogue Waves in Spatially Extended Optical Systems
Giant anomalous events may occur in systems characterized by many waves, with extremely high amplitude waves appearing with a probability much higher than expected for a random dynamics. Such rare, and giant, events are known to occur on the ocean surface and have been named, in that context, “rogue waves”. We present here some recent experimental results on the statistical properties of giant ...
