In this paper, we propose a nonlinear maximum average correlation height (MACH) filter for information authentication of photon counting double random phase encryption (DRPE). To enhance the security of DRPE, photon counting imaging can be applied because of its sparseness. However, under severely photon-starved conditions, information authentication of DRPE may not be implemented successfully. To visualize the photon counting DRPE, a three-dimensional imaging technique such as integral imaging can be used. In addition, a nonlinear MACH filter can be utilized for helping the information authentication. Therefore, in this paper, we use integral imaging and nonlinear MACH filter to implement the information authentication of photon counting DRPE. To verify our method, we implement optical experiments and computer simulation.

We study the propagation of two pulses with orthogonal linear polarizations in a nonlinear periodic dielectric structure with $X^{(3)}$ nonlinearity. Using an envelope- function approach, we derive the coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations governing the spatio-temporal evolutions of the two orthogonally polarized modes in a nonlinear periodic structure. We then find their solitary-wave solutions referred to as coupled gap solitons. We show that two orthogonally polarized pulses can co-propagate as a coupled gap soliton through a nonlinear periodic structure while each pulse alone will be strongly reflected due to the Bragg reflection. Based on the results, we present an all-optical switching scheme which has a novel architecture and principle. We also study the stability of coupled gap solitons to find the dragging phenomena in a nonlinear birefringent periodic medium.

In this paper the effect of instability and chaos in optical fiber networks based on the Internet is described. Nonlinear optical fiber effect especially Brillouin scattering in networks has emerged as the essential means for the construction of active optical devices used for all-optic in-line switching, channel selection, amplification, oscillation in optical communications and a host of other applications. The inherent optical feedback by the back-scattered Stokes wave in optical networks also leads to instabilities in the form of optical chaos. This paradigm of optical chaos in fiber Internet serves as a test for fundamental study of chaos and its suppression and exploitation in practical application in optical fiber communication. This paper attempts to present a survey and some of our research findings on the nature of Brillouin chaotic effect on Internet based optical communication.

We obtain a solution of optical parametric amplification using self-phase modulation within the Kerr media in a nonlinear interferometer with two arms. We show that it is equivalent to the solution driven by four-wave mixing and that the solution of parametric amplification is suitable to generate a parametric gain. We obtain a derivative of power gain with respect to the propagation distance and show that gain-saturation can occur as the beam propagates along the nonlinear arms. We also show a bandwidth characteristic of the parametric amplification driven by nondegenerate four-wave mixing. Numerical examples are given to illustrate that the solution of the parametric amplification can be applied to design and analysis of all-optical devices such as all-optical amplifiers.

New nonliner organic materials have been developed for all-optical signal processing. The organic materials possess many interesting features for this purpose. Unlike inorganic molecules the delocalized $\pi$-electron distribution and intramolecular charge transfer mevhanism allows certain organic molecules to respond highly anharmonically to an external field. In the present paper the origins of nonlinear phenomena, advantages of orgnic materials and structures of organic devices will be discussed.

Plasmonic high-order harmonic generation (HHG) is used in nanoscale optical applications because it can help in realizing a compact coherent ultrashort pulse generator on the nanoscale, using plasmonic field enhancement. The plasmonic amplification of nanostructures induces nonlinear optical phenomena such as second-order harmonic generation, third-order harmonic generation, frequency mixing, and HHG. This amplification also causes damage to the structure itself. In this study, the plasmonic amplification according to the design of a metal-coated sapphire conical structure is theoretically calculated, and we analyze the effects of this optical amplification on HHG and damage to the sample.

Low-threshold optical bistability is essential for practical nonlinear optical applications. Many bistable optical devices based on high-quality-factor resonators have been proposed to reduce the threshold intensity. However, demonstrating high-quality-factor resonance requires complex fabrication techniques. In this work, we numerically demonstrate optical bistability with bound states in the continuum in a simple one-dimensional Si photonic crystal. The designed structure supports bound states in the continuum, producing an ultrahigh quality factor without tough fabrication conditions. The threshold intensity of the designed device is 150 MW/cm² at the optical communication wavelength. This scheme may lead to a new class of nonlinear photonics.

We theoretically analyze the properties of nonlinear distortion due to modulation instability (MI), which is a major factor of performance degradation in optical amplified transmission systems, and propose an optical link structure to compensate MI based on the analysis. The proposed MI compensating link structure is composed of optical phase conjugators (OPCs) and dispersion compensating fibers (DCFs) in order to suppress nonlinear effects in optical transmission links. It has been confirmed through computer simulations that the performance of the proposed compensation scheme is superior to that of conventional compensation schemes for 500 km transmission.
