Figure 7. Output temporal characteristics and statistical features of random fiber laser[36]
(a) and (b) typical temporal trace of the output random laser around threshold. (c) histograms (log scale) showing the distribution of optical intensity maxima for 105 trace events. The peak intensities are normalized by the corresponding SWH (defined as the mean height of the highest third of events) values. The vertical dashed lines indicate 2 × SWH and thus mark the limit for a pulse to be considered as an optical RW (Rogue Wave). (d) evolution of consecutive traces around optical RW events at threshold. (e) pulse shapes of typical normal and optical RW events.
