Abstract:
Recent remarkable progress in wave-front shaping has enabled control of light propagation inside linear media to focus and image through scattering objects. In particular, light propagation in multimode fibers comprises complex intermodal interactions and rich spatiotemporal dynamics. Control of physical phenomena in multimode fibers and its applications is in its infancy, opening opportunities to take advantage of complex mode interactions. Various embodiments of the present technology provide wave-front shaping for controlling nonlinear phenomena in multimode fibers. Using a spatial light modulator at the fiber's input and a genetic algorithm optimization, some embodiments control a highly nonlinear stimulated Raman scattering cascade and its interplay with four wave mixing via a flexible implicit control on the superposition of modes that are coupled into the fiber.

Claim (Index 1):
A system to control spatial, spectral, polarization and/or temporal distribution of light, the system comprising:\n a light source configured to generate a light; a spatial light modulator having a variable mask to modify one or more properties of the light generated by the light source; a medium having a proximal end to receive a modified light from the spatial light modulator and guide the modified light to a distal end; a detection system to evaluate the one or more properties produced by the modified light at the distal end of the medium; and a control system communicably coupled to the spatial light modulator and the detection system, configured to:\n evaluate the one or more properties produced by the modified light at the distal end of the medium; \n generate an updated mask that enhances the one or more properties of the modified light at the distal end of the medium; and \n transmit a signal to the spatial light modulator to implement the updated mask.
