Giant Nonlinear AlGaAs-Doped Glass Photonic Crystal Fibers for Efficient Soliton Generation at Femtojoule Energy

In this paper, a unique semiconductor-doped glass photonic crystal fiber has been designed, which is suitable for soliton propagation at femto-Joule energy. The fiber promises to yield low and uniform anomalous dispersion profile and very large optical nonlinearities 25 211 W<sup>-1</sup>...
