Characterization of sidebands in fiber lasers based on nonlinear Fourier transformation
Abstract:
Phase evolution of soliton and that of first-order sidebands in a fiber laser are investigated by using nonlinear Fourier transform (NFT). Development from dip-type sidebands to peak-type (Kelly) sidebands is presented. The phase relationship between the soliton and the sidebands calculated by the NFT are in good agreement with the average soliton theory. Our results suggest that NFT can be an effective tool for the analysis of laser pulses.

Raman Spectroscopy Instrumentation: Overview
The monochromatic laser source, typically using visible or near-infrared radiation, generates a highly focused beam of light. This light interacts with the molecules of the sample, scattering some of the light. Liquid and gaseous samples are usually tested in ordinary glass capillaries, while solids can be analyzed as powders packed in capillaries or as potassium...
