The group velocity dispersion is given in the graph below for a common glass material (fused silica), where in terms of the notation given in class: D??=??02?2?ck??? Consider a transform-limited optical pulse with a center wavelength of 700nm and a pulse duration of 60 femtoseconds. If this pulse propagates through 1cm of fused silica, what is the final pulse duration?
(b) What is the final value of the chirp parameter? (c) Optical fiber is typically made out of fused silica. When using pulses to communicate information down optical fiber, one wishes to minimize pulse distortions. In this case, what is the preferred center wavelength of the pulses used?
