Nonlinear depolarization of light in optical communication fiber
We report the experimental observation of a novel transmission phenomenon in optical long-haul communication systems. Unpolarized ASE depolarizes via nonlinear fiber interactions a cw laser light during their copropagation which leads to small but measurable ultrafast polarization state fluctuations...
