Through numerical simulations, we show that, under relatively general conditions, passage of an intense picosecond pulse through a single-mode optical fiber can cause the pulse to become strongly frequency broadened with a positive chirp (linear frequency sweep) describing essentially all of the energy of the output pulse. Also, because the optical fiber supports only a single transverse mode, the entire output beam profile has the same frequency modulation. These two features allow for unprecedented optical pulse compression.
