Stokes Vector Scattering induced by Nonlinear Depolarization of Light in Fiber

Optics 2020-08-28 v1

Abstract

We report the experimental observation of SOP scattering in Stokes space caused by nonlinear depolarization (NLDP) of light in fiber. In addition to our previous characterizations of NLDP by SOP speed histograms and Stokes vector spectra, we measure SOP scattering angles. For trans-Pacific propagation distances these angles range within a few degrees.
