Abstract

We present a software for a numerical simulation of the generation, propagation, and nonlinear-optical spectral and temporal evolution of ultrashort light pulses in laser systems and spectral-transformation devices based on micro- and nanostructured optical fibers. Functional modes and options offered by the developed software are explained. The LabVIEW interface allows a user to vary parameters of optical nonlinearity, gain, and loss, as well as to modify dispersion profiles of fiber components.
