Gravity-like force suppresses normal GVD and blue shifts frequency of femtosecond pulses in fibres

Gravity-like force suppresses normal GVD and blue shifts frequency of femtosecond pulses in fibres

We report a novel mechanism of localization and frequency up-conversion of light pulses with spectra in the normal GVD range of optical fibres, due to the inertial force acting on pulses from the accelerating solitons.
