研究目的
Investigating the physical origin of higher-order soliton fission in nanophotonic semiconductor waveguides, focusing on the roles of nonlinear loss and free-carrier dispersion.
研究成果
The study concludes that nonlinear loss is the dominant perturbation in wire waveguides, while free-carrier dispersion is dominant in photonic crystal waveguides. The findings provide insights into the dynamics of soliton fission in semiconductor waveguides, highlighting the importance of considering both nonlinear loss and free-carrier effects in the design of integrated supercontinuum sources.
研究不足
The study is limited to specific waveguide geometries and pulse parameters. The impact of free-carrier dispersion and nonlinear loss may vary under different conditions. The simulations assume certain parameters like waveguide width as free parameters to match experimental data, which may not capture all real-world variations.
