21. Liquid crystalline polymers for nonlinear optics : pyroelectric polymers and ferroelectric dendrimers
Abstract : This thesis deals with liquid crystalline materialsincluding monomers, side-chain polymers, crosslinked polymers,and dendrimers. The materials are pyroelectric, meaning thatthere is a macroscopic electric polarization in the material,which is energetically stable in the absence of externalfields. READ MORE

22. Tailored fiber lasers and their use in nonlinear optics
Abstract : The objective of this thesis work was to develop tailored fiber lasers, which meet the pump requirement for efficient continuous-wave (cw) frequency conversion to the visible and the mid-infrared wavelength regimes: a stable, high-power, wavelength-tunable, narrow-linewidth output in a single polarization. As a first step, the prospect of tuning ytterbium fiber lasers over an unprecedented wavelength range, from 980nm to 1100nm, was investigated. READ MORE

23. Mitigation of nonlinear fiber distortion using phase conjugation
Abstract : This thesis is devoted to the study of fiber-optic communication systems that mitigate nonlinear distortion due to the Kerr effect by transmitting a phase-conjugated copy alongside the signal followed by coherent superposition. This kind of communication systems are referred to as phase-conjugated twin waves systems when the phase-conjugated copy is transmitted on the orthogonal polarization. READ MORE

24. Pulse Propagation in Nonlinear Media and Photonic Crystals
Abstract : The present thesis is devoted to theoretical studies of pulse propagation of light through linear and nonlinear media, and of light-induced nuclear dynamics. The first part of the thesis addresses propagation of light pulses in linear periodical media - photonic crystals. READ MORE

25. Problems in Nonlinear Wave Propagation A Walk in Physics from Plasmas to Bose-Einstein Condensates with some Examples of Unifying Themes in Nature
Abstract : Waves are a phenomenon that can be found virtually everywhere in nature. A first description of wave propagation can be given in the linear limit, but the nonlinear regime of propagation is of the utmost importance, also in view of possible applications in several scientific fields.
