In this paper, Self Phase Modulation (SPM) in chalcogenide As2Se3glass Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF) is numerically studied by combining the fully vectorial effective index method (FVEIM) and Split Step Fourier Method (SSFM). The FVEIM is used to calculate the variation of effective refractive index of guided mode (neff), effective area (Aeff), dispersion and non-linear coefficient (γ) with wavelength for different designs of chalcogenide As2Se3PCF. The FVEIM solves the vector wave equations and SSFM solves non linear Schrödinger Equation (NLSE) for the different designing parameter of As2Se3PCF. In case of Self Phase Modulation (SPM), spectral width of the obtained output pulse at d/Λ=0.7 is 1.5 times greater than width of the output pulse obtained at d/L=0.3 using SSFM. Thus we can get the desired spectral broadening just by tailoring the design parameters of the PCF.

A scheme to achieve 40Gb/s all-optical 3R-regeneration through cross-phase modulation and self-phase modulation is studied in this paper. The core of the scheme is to use ultra-highly nonlinear photonic crystal fiber as the Mach-Zehnder interference of one arm. Length of the photonic crystal fiber at the arm is adjusted after calculation so as to make the signal light through the arm produce nonlinear phase shift of by means of XPM effect, then mutual interference between the resulting light and the optical signal at the other arm is generated and the noise interfusing the system is eliminated to make the signal be regenerated. Furthermore, self-phase modulation effect of the fiber is applied to make further optimization of the signal, with Optisystem for simulation experiment.
