Накратко на български
Многомодовите и многоядерните оптични влакна позволяват пренос на светлина в различни форми, а не само в един кръгъл лъч. Разбирането на сложните взаимодействия между тези форми помага за създаването на по-мощни лазери и по-добри оптични усилватели.

nonlineAr Multimode and mUlticore optical fiberS for multIple appliCations
Optical fibers are of utmost importance in several areas. Their use has revolutionized the telecommunication landscape, leading to ultrafast data transmission in the Internet network. In addition, they are widely used in sensor technology, medicine, astronomy, spectroscopy and lasers, just to name a few. A ray of light that propagates into an optical fiber may have many different shapes, called modes. For example, a mode may have circular shape, similar to a beam of light projected onto the wall by a laser pointer. Most of the present optical fiber technology is based on single-mode fibers, where only one mode can propagate and then be exploited, that is the mode having circular shape. Recent years have witnessed a huge interest in multimode (MM) and multicore (MC) fibers, which support the propagation of several modes besides the circular one. The exploitation of many different modes paves the way to new opportunities beyond what is possible in single-mode fibers. However, this comes at the expense of a much more complex dynamics whose understanding is far from being complete, which includes several kind of nonlinear interactions between the different modes. It is in this framework that the project AMUSIC has arisen, with the expectation to advance the state-of-the-art understanding of nonlinear effects in MM and MC fibers. The project aimed at developing an optimized numerical platform for the analysis of nonlinear effects in MM and MC fibers, and then at investigating new devices where nonlinear effects are exploited in view of important applications in several key-areas, from tunable MM optical amplifiers and oscillators up to novel high-power fiber lasers.

Цел на проекта
Light propagation in multimode (MM) and multicore (MC) optical fibers is rapidly emerging as one of the most exciting topics in optical physics. These fibers are employed in several fields, spanning from telecommunications to spectroscopy and astronomy. In addition, they support a complex nonlinear spatiotemporal dynamics that is the subject of intense research and the understanding of which is far from being complete. It is in this framework that the project AMUSIC arises: it aims to advance the state-of-art understanding of nonlinear effects in MM and MC fibers and to investigate some promising devices where these effects are exploited in view of important applications in several key-areas.The first part of the project is dedicated to the development of an optimized numerical platform for the analysis of nonlinear effects in MM and MC fibers. In the second part we target the investigation and experimental implementation of the following fiber based devices: 1)MM fiber optical parametric amplifiers and oscillators supporting the simultaneous amplification/generation of several modes in an extremely broad and tunable band.2) High power MC- and MM-doped fiber lasers, where nonlinear effects are exploited to promote phase-synchronization and multimode soliton mode-locking.AMUSIC is aligned with the key-drivers and focus areas of Horizon-2020 Work program (WP) . The project goals will be achieved in the framework of international academic and industrial partnerships (WP key-drivers : ""Leverage and boost engagement of industry"" and ""Supporting strong partnership with Member States""). In addition, the envisaged devices may find application in several fields, among which molecular fingerprinting techniques for personalised detection of disease by breath analysis (WP focus area : ""Personalising health and care"") and Spatial-Division-Multiplexing schemes for new smart and sustainable digital infrastructures (WP focus area “Smart cities and communities”)""
