We propose a three dimensional Discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin Maxwell approach for modeling Raman gain in fiber laser amplifiers. In contrast with popular beam propagation models, we are interested in a truly full vectorial approach. We apply the ultraweak DPG formulation, which is known to carry desirable properties for high-frequency wave propagation problems, to the coupled Maxwell signal/pump system and use a nonlinear iterative scheme to account for the Raman gain. This paper also introduces a novel and practical full-vectorial formulation of the electric polarization term for Raman gain that emphasizes the fact that the computer modeler is only given a measured bulk Raman gain coefficient. Our results provide promising qualitative corroboration of the model and methodology used.

We present both modeling and computational advancements to a unique three-dimensional discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin finite element model for the simulation of laser amplification in a fiber amplifier. Our model is based on the time-harmonic Maxwell e
quations, and it incorporates both amplification via an active dopant and thermal effects via coupling with the heat equation. As a full vectorial finite element simulation, this model distinguishes itself from other fiber amplifier models that are typically posed as an initial value problem and make significantly more approximations. Our model supports co-, counter-, and bi-directional pumping configurations, as well as inhomogeneous and anisotropic material properties. The longer-term goal of this modeling effort is to study nonlinear phenomena that prohibit achieving unprecedented power levels in fiber amplifiers, along with validating typical approximations used in lower-fidelity models. The high-fidelity simulation comes at the cost of a high-order finite element discretization with many degrees of freedom per wavelength. This is necessary to counter the effect of numerical pollution due to the high-frequency nature of the wave simulation. To make the computation more feasible, we have developed a novel longitudinal model rescaling, using artificial material parameters with the goal of preserving certain quantities of interest. Our numerical tests demonstrate the applicability and utility of this scaled model in the simulation of an ytterbium-doped, step-index fiber amplifier that experiences laser amplification and heating. We present numerical results for the nonlinear coupled Maxwell/heat model with up to 240 wavelengths.
Backward Raman amplification is limited by relativistic nonlinear dephasing resulting in saturation of the leading spike of the amplified pulse. Pump detuning is employed to mitigate the relativistic phase mismatch and to overcome the associated satu
ration. The amplified pulse can then be reshaped into a mono-spike pulse with little precursory power ahead of it, with the maximum intensity increasing by a factor of two. This detuning can be employed advantageously both in regimes where the group velocity dispersion is unimportant and where the dispersion is important but small.
We demonstrate the stabilization of two-dimensional nonlinear wave patterns by means of a dissipative confinement potential. Our analytical and numerical analysis, based on the generalized dissipative Gross-Pitaevskii equation, makes use of the close
analogy between the dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate and that of mode-locked fiber laser, operating in the anomalous dispersion regime. In the last case, the formation of stable two-dimensional patterns corresponds to spatiotemporal mode-locking, using dissipation-enhanced mode cleaning. We analyze the main scenarios of pattern destabilization, varying from soliton dissolution to its splitting and spatiotemporal turbulence, and their dependence on graded dissipation.
Discontinuous Petrov Galerkin (DPG) methods are made easily implementable using `broken test spaces, i.e., spaces of functions with no continuity constraints across mesh element interfaces. Broken spaces derivable from a standard exact sequence of fi
rst order (unbroken) Sobolev spaces are of particular interest. A characterization of interface spaces that connect the broken spaces to their unbroken counterparts is provided. Stability of certain formulations using the broken spaces can be derived from the stability of analogues that use unbroken spaces. This technique is used to provide a complete error analysis of DPG methods for Maxwell equations with perfect electric boundary conditions. The technique also permits considerable simplifications of previous analyses of DPG methods for other equations. Reliability and efficiency estimates for an error indicator also follow. Finally, the equivalence of stability for various formulations of the same Maxwell problem is proved, including the strong form, the ultraweak form, and a spectrum of forms in between.
We analyze the amplification processes occurring in a nonlinear fiber, either driven with one or two pumps. After determining the solution for the signal and idler fields resulting from these amplification processes, we analyze the physical transform
ations that these fields undergo. To this aim, we use a Bloch-Messiah decomposition for the symplectic transformation governing the fields evolution. Although conceptually equivalent to other works in this area [McKinstrie and Karlsson, Opt. Expr. 21, 1374 (2013)], this analysis is intended to be particularly simple, gathering results spread in the literature, which is useful for guiding practical implementations. Furthermore, we present a study of the correlations of the signal-idler fields at the amplifier output. We show that these fields are correlated, study their correlations as a function of the pump power, and stress the impact of these correlations on the amplifier noise figure. Finally, we address the effect of losses. We determine whether it is advantageous to consider a link consisting in an amplifying non-linear fiber, followed by a standard fiber based lossy transmission line, or whether the two elements should be reversed, by comparing the respective noise figures.
