Abstract

An experimental investigation of nonlinear power transmission limits in short lengths of single-mode fibre is described. Nonlinearities have been observed at peak optical power levels of a few hundred watts, and these thresholds have been compared with theoretical predictions. The consequences of these power transmission limits for the development and characterisation of nonlinear fibre waveguide devices are discussed.
