Abstract

A novel method for measuring nonlinear refractive index coefficient of an optical fiber using input-output characteristics in nonlinear dynamics generated in an optical fiber ring resonator is proposed and demonstrated for a pure silica core fiber. The nonlinear refractive index coefficient n2=1.03×10^-22[m2/V²] is obtained in the experimental demonstration.
