@article{Porins_Ivanovs_Supe_2010, title={Measurements of Nonlinear Coefficient in OS2 Optical Fiber}, volume={101}, url={https://eejournal.ktu.lt/index.php/elt/article/view/9425}, abstractNote={<p>The nonlinear coefficient of the various optical fibers types has been experimentally and with OptSim 5.0 simulation software studied. With the help of CW SPM, P-SPM and XPM measuring methods the following parameters have been determined experimentally: nonlinear coefficient <em>n<sub>2</sub>/A<sub>eff</sub></em> and nonlinear refractive index <em>n<sub>2</sub></em>; accordingly, <em>n<sub>2</sub>/A<sub>eff</sub></em> is calculated to be in the range 1.24·10<sup>-12</sup> - 5.26·10<sup>-10</sup> 1/W, whereas <em>n<sub>2</sub></em> − in the range 3.38·10<sup>-23</sup> - 4.21·10<sup>-20</sup> m<sup>2</sup>/W. As seen from results the OS2 fibers have smaller variation of nonlinear coefficient values at different measurement methods in contrast to SSMF and DSF fibers. OS2 fiber <em>n<sub>2</sub></em> value stability are in the limits from 2.88·10<sup>-20</sup> m<sup>2</sup>/W in case of P-SMP method to 2.9·10<sup>-21</sup> m<sup>2</sup>/W in case of CW SMP method.</p>}, number={5}, journal={Elektronika ir Elektrotechnika}, author={Porins, J. and Ivanovs, G. and Supe, A.}, year={2010}, month={Apr.}, pages={53-56} }
