Self-focusing — is a non linear optical process induced by the change in refractive index of materials exposed to intense electromagnetic radiation. [Cumberbatch, E. Self focusing in Non linear optics , J. Inst. Maths Applics 6, 250 (1970)] Mourou, G. A. et al.… … Wikipedia
Self-phase modulation — (SPM) is a nonlinear optical effect of light matter interaction.An ultrashort pulse of light, when travelling in a medium, will induce a varying refractive index of the medium due to the optical Kerr effect. This variation in refractive index… … Wikipedia
Pulse-width modulation — (PWM) of a signal or power source involves the modulation of its duty cycle, to either convey information over a communications channel or control the amount of power sent to a load. PrinciplePulse width modulation uses a square wave whose pulse… … Wikipedia
Cross-phase modulation — (XPM) is a nonlinear optical effect where one wavelength of light can affect the phase of another wavelength of light through the optical Kerr effect. Contents 1 Applications of XPM 2 XPM in DWDM applications 3 See also … Wikipedia
Structured Light 3D Scanner — Principle Projecting a narrow band of light onto a three dimensionally shaped surface produces a line of illumination that appears distorted from other perspectives than that of the projector, and can be used for an exact geometric reconstruction … Wikipedia
Modelocking — Mode locking is a technique in optics by which a laser can be made to produce pulses of light of extremely short duration, on the order of picoseconds (10 12s) or femtoseconds (10 15s).The basis of the technique is to induce a fixed phase… … Wikipedia
Mode-locking — is a technique in optics by which a laser can be made to produce pulses of light of extremely short duration, on the order of picoseconds (10−12 s) or femtoseconds (10−15 s). The basis of the technique is to induce a fixed phase… … Wikipedia
Soliton (optics) — In optics, the term soliton is used to refer to any optical field that does not change during propagation because of a delicate balance between nonlinear and linear effects in the medium. There are two main kinds of solitons: spatial solitons:… … Wikipedia
Gurgen Askaryan — ( hy. Գուրգեն Ասկարյան , ru. Гурген Аскарьян or Гурген Аскарян ) (1928 1997) was a prominent Soviet physicist, famous for his discovery of the self focusing of light. Among his other achievements are the pioneering studies of light matter… … Wikipedia
