Calculated phase matching condition as the difference between the soliton index and dispersive wave of TE10 and TM10 modes in waveguide of 1500 nm width under the peak power of 10 W, 100 W, 200 W and 500 W. The nonlinear refractive index of 10−14 cm−2/W is adopted. The phase matching wavelengths for the dispersive waves of TM10 modes in waveguide of 1500 nm width fall in 1.02 μm and 1.1 μm at peak power of 10 W. At the peak power of 100 W, the dispersive waves are at 0.98 μm and 1.46 μm. At the peak power of 200 W, the dispersive waves are at 0.96 μm and 1.5 μm. For higher power, the phase matching falls outsides the experimentally observable range due to the limit of our spectral meter.
