Abstract
In this thesis, we address the question of what new physics is expected to emerge as optical nonlinearity continues to increase towards the single-photon-level nonlinearity and how we can utilize the dynamics of photons in such a regime. In particular, we put special emphasis on broadband nonlinear photonics, where ultrashort pulses in nonlinear waveguides can provide significant enhancement of nonlinear coupling via tight three-dimensional field confinement. As such strong nonlinearity naturally leads to quantum features in broadband optical fields, the main aim of this thesis can be more precisely summarized as understanding the phenomenology of multimode nonlinear quantum dynamics of photons and engineering novel functions by leveraging the phenomenology.
