Abstract
We investigate the reconfiguration of a low-intensity probe propagating in the optical trap created by a train of temporal pulses, in a hollow-core photonic crystal filled with gas. The reconfiguration scheme rests on the assumption that a temporal pulse train can trap low-intensity fields in hollow-core photonic crystals, in order to compensate for their dispersion during propagation. We find a family of three bound states with different propagation constants, representing the three possible distinct pump-reconfigured probe profiles one of which is a “copy” of the pump. We analyze the effects of self-steepening on the pump and probe profiles and find that self-steepening causes a uniform shift of the pump, but a complex motion for the probe featuring anharmonic oscillations. The proposed trapping scheme is intended for optical applications involving optical-field cloning and duplication via wave guided-wave processes in photonic fiber media, in which interplay time-division multiplexed high-intensity pulses coexisting with continuous waves.
