Issue Date: | 2019 | Source: | IEEE photonics journal, Aug. 2019, v. 11, no. 4, 4500911, p. 1-12 | Abstract: | Spectral compression (SPC) can be used for generating narrow bandwidth and wavelength-tunable light sources, which have important applications in optical communication system, spectroscopy, and nonlinear microscopy. In this paper, we numerically demonstrate the high-degree SPC of the chirp-free femtosecond pulse at wavelength 2.4 mu m in a 6-cm long adiabatically suspended silicon waveguide taper. The silicon waveguide taper is designed with a dispersion-increasing profile along the propagation distance z. Simulation results show that the SPC factor can be up to 10.9, along with the brightness-enhanced factor of 8.0 and negligible sidelobe. The impacts of the higher order dispersion, higher order nonlinearity, losses (including linear and nonlinear loss), and variation of Kerr nonlinear coefficient along z on the SPC are also investigated. It is found that variation of Kerr nonlinear coefficient gamma(z) and linear loss are the dominant perturbation to the degradation of the SPC performance. | Keywords: | Spectral compression Soliton Suspended silicon waveguide taper |
