Abstract :
We experimentally demonstrate the use of a bismuth-oxide-based nonlinear optical fiber (Bi-NLF) for the generation of ultra-wideband (UWB) monocycle pulses. It is shown that UWB monocycle pulses can be successfully generated using cross-phase modulation in a Bi-NLF followed by phase modulation-to-intensity modulation conversion.
