  • Abstract
    Self-defocusing soliton compression supported by the cascaded phase-mismatched second-harmonic generation process is numerically demonstrated in unpoled lithium niobate ridge waveguides where nano-joule pulses are operated and quasi-phase-matching is unnecessary. The soliton range is 1100-1800 nm.
