Title: Stimulated Raman self-scattering of femtosecond pulses. II. The self-compression of Schroedinger solitons in a spectrally inhomogeneous dispersion medium

Journal Article · · Quantum Electronics (Woodbury, N.Y.)

It is shown that stimulated Raman self-scattering (SRSS) can be efficiently used for the compression of femtosecond optical solitons in optical fibres with the spectrally inhomogeneous frequency dependence of the group-velocity dispersion. The SRS dynamics is studied in detail near the point of the second-order zero dispersion. The saturation of compression of femtosecond solitons in spectrally inhomogeneous fibres in the zero-dispersion region is predicted. (solitons)
