Features of spectral compression based on sum-frequency generation

Abstract

Peculiarities of the process of spectral compression through sum-frequency generation are discussed for the case when nonlinear-dispersive similariton generated from a part of the signal is used as a reference pulse. The compression efficiency depending on the initial pulse intensity is studied. The possibility of spectral compression is discussed in the absence of self-phase modulation, when the reference and signal pulses have the same durations and spectral bandwidths.
