Phase Locking in Nonlinear Optical Patterns
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a new type of optical patterns induced by phase locking of several wave vectors with different lengths and orientations. Wave vector selection is due to the optical nonlinearity provided by a Kerr-like medium. The system displays pattern multistability. We characterize the different configurations by the distribution of wave vector families in Fourier space. Even close to threshold, the strong coupling among families yields a collective behavior without critical slowing down, at variance with the isolated behavior of each separate family.

Nonlinear optimized Fast Locking PLLs Using Genetic Algorithm
Abstract— This paper presents a novel approach to obtain fast locking PLL by embedding a nonlinear element in the loop of PLL. The nonlinear element has a general parametric Taylor expansion. Using genetic algorithm (GA) we try to optimize the nonlinear element parameters. Embedding optimized nonlinear element in the loop shows enhancements in speed and stability of PLL. To evaluate the perform...
متن کاملOn the robustness of phase locking in Kerr optical frequency combs.
We theoretically investigate the phase locking phenomena between the spectral components of Kerr optical frequency combs in the dynamical regime of Turing patterns. We show that these Turing patterns display a particularly strong and robust phase locking, originating from a cascade of phase locked triplets which asymptotically lead to a global phase locking between the modes. The local and glob...
متن کاملFrequency Locking in a Degenerate Polarization Mixing Optical Parametric Oscillator
A polarization mixing OPO was demonstrated, that emits a single, linearly polarized narrow linewidth beam, fixed at degeneracy, independent of crystal temperature. The frequency locking is explained in terms of balanced roundtrip phase-matching condition. ©2005 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (190.2620) Frequency conversion; (190.4410) Nonlinear optics, parametric processes; (190.4970) P...
متن کاملFrequency and phase locking of laser cavity solitons
Self-localized states or dissipative solitons have the freedom of translation in systems with a homogeneous background. When compared to cavity solitons in coherently driven nonlinear optical systems, laser cavity solitons have the additional freedom of the optical phase. We explore the consequences of this additional Goldstone mode and analyze experimentally and numerically frequency and phase...
متن کاملEffect of Nonlinear Phase Variation in Optical Millimetre Wave Radio over Fibre Systems
In this paper, we propose an optical millimetre wave radio-over-fibre (mm-wave RoF) system that uses a dual drive Mach Zehnder modulator (DD-MZM), which is biased at the maximum transmission biasing point, to generate an optical double sideband-suppressed carrier. The input to the DD-MZM are binary phase shift keying (BPSK), quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), 8-phase shift keying (8-PSK) and...
