  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. We report here on experimental observations on strong modulation in the spectrum of short optical pulses propagating in a photonic crystal fibre (PCF). The modulation is explained to result from interference between the soliton and the radiation field, which is created when the Gaussian input pulse evolves into an asymptotic soliton.
