3. Pulse propagation in a single-mode fiber
3.1 Linear and non-linear effects. Non-linear Schrödinger equation
The propagation of an electric field pulse u (t, z ) along an optical fiber is governed in the most general case by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation :

Directory
Manufacturers – Suppliers – Distributors (non-exhaustive list)
A few major manufacturers share the worldwide market for optical fibers and cables for long-distance telecommunications networks. These "generalist" groups manufacture just about every type of fiber used in telecommunications, and are capable of producing thousands of kilometers of fiber.
