Ionization-induced adiabatic soliton compression in gas-filled hollow-core photonic crystal fibers.

Optics letters

Huang ZY, Chen YF, Yu F, Wu DK, Zhao Y, Wang D, Leng YX.
PMID: 31730109
Opt Lett. 2019 Nov 15;44(22):5562-5565. doi: 10.1364/OL.44.005562.

We investigate in the experiments the ionization-induced adiabatic soliton compression process in a short length of He-filled single-ring photonic crystal fiber. We observe that the plasma-driven blueshifting solitons show little residual light near the pump wavelength in a certain...
