Optical Scar in a chaotic fibre
arXiv:physics/0612179 · doi:10.1140/epjst/e2007-00147-2
Abstract
We propose to use a multimode optical fiber with a D-shaped cross section as a privileged system to image wavefunctions of a chaotic system. Scar modes are in particular the sub ject of our investigations. We study their imprints on the statistics of intensity and we show how the introduction of a localized gain region in the fiber is used to perform a selective excitation of scar modes.
