This paper reviews the field of extreme nonlinear optics in optical fibers, highlighting key phenomena and advancements. It discusses multiple ionization effects caused by femtosecond laser pulses that generate plasma and induce permanent…
Based on boundary condition and dispersion relation, the superluminal group velocity in an anisotropic metamaterial (AMM) is investigated. The superluminal propagation is induced by the hyperbolic dispersion relation associated with the…
Slow light is a regime of reduced group velocity, resulting in increased photon density in optical pulses and enhanced nonlinear effects. Here, we propose the realization of slow light in the regime of strong light-matter interaction…
Powerful incoherent laser pulses can propagate in focusing Kerr media much longer distances than can coherent pulses, due to the fast phase mixing that prevents transverse filamentation. This distance is limited by 4-wave scattering, which…
In recent years, control of group velocity of light has attracted enormous interest. One of the main challenges is to realize an absorption-free fast or slow light propagation. Here, we study dispersion and absorption properties of a weak…
Using long-range surface plasmon polaritons light can propagate in metal nano-scale waveguides for ultracompact opto-electronic devices. Gold is an important material for plasmonic waveguides, but although its linear optical properties are…
The system of equations describing an ultrashort optical pulses propagation in semiconductor superlattice with applied magnetic field was obtained based on Boltzmann equation in the relaxation-time approximation for the single electron…
Numerical implementation of a theory yields acoustic wave packets whose peak-to-peak speeds, $c_{3d}$, are supersonic in a dispersionless medium due to temporal interference between direct and boundary-reflected paths. The effect occurs…
We investigate the reversibility of laser filamentation, a self-sustained, non-linear propagation regime including dissipation and time-retarded effects. We show that even losses related to ionization marginally affect the possibility of…
A nonlinear quantum-optical process is considered: emission of photon pairs by the reflecting end of a fiber excited by a standing laser wave. Radiation occurs due to periodic changes in the optical length of the fiber over time. This…
Single-photon and correlated two-photon sources are important elements for optical information systems. Nonlinear downconversion light sources are robust and stable emitters of single photons and entangled photon pairs. However, the rate of…
Using a single channel active Raman gain medium we show a $(220\pm 20)$ns advance time for an optical pulse of $\tau_{FWHM}=15.4 \mu$s propagating through a 10 cm medium, a lead time that is comparable to what was reported previously. In…
We theoretically revisit the problem of the propagation of coherent light pulses through a linear medium when the carrier frequency of the pulses coincides with the minimum of a narrow dip in the medium transmission. Considering realistic…
We theoretically study the linear transmission of linearly polarizedlight pulses in an ensemble of cold atoms submitted to a static magneticfield parallel to the direction of propagation. The carrier frequencyof the incident pulses…
We theoretically investigate the transmission dynamics of coherent matter wave pulses across finite optical lattices in both the linear and the nonlinear regimes. The shape and the intensity of the transmitted pulse are found to strongly…
It has been found in several papers that, because of quantum corrections, light front can propagate with superluminal velocity in gravitational fields and even in flat space-time across two conducting plates. We show that, if this is the…
Intensive light pulse interaction with a dense resonant medium is considered. The possibilities of optical switching and pulse compression at realistic parameters of the medium are analyzed. Pulse shape transformation in different photonic…
We show that arrival times for electromagnetic pulses measured through the rate of absorption in an ideal impedance matched detector are equivalent to the arrival times using the average flow of optical energy as proposed by Peatross {\it…
An effect of polarization-mode dispersion, nonlinearity and random variation of dispersion along an optical fiber on a pulse propagation in a randomly birefringent dispersion-shifted optical fiber with zero average dispersion is studied. An…
Self-compression of multi-millijoule femtosecond laser pulses and dramatic increase of the peak intensity are found in pressurized helium and neon within a range of intensity in which the ionization modification of the material parameters…
