Mode-locked picosecond pulse generation from an octave-spanning supercontinuum.
We generate mode-locked picosecond pulses near 1110 nm by spectrally slicing and reamplifying an octave-spanning supercontinuum source pumped at 1550 nm. The 1110 nm pulses are near transform-limited, with 1.7 ps duration over their 1.2 nm bandwidth, and exhibit high interpulse coherence. Both the supercontinuum source and the pulse synthesis system are implemented completely in fiber. The vers...
متن کاملQuantum - dot external - cavity passively mode - locked laser with high peak power and pulse energy
An InAs quantum-dot external-cavity passively mode-locked laser with an operation wavelength of 1.27 μm is demonstrated, based on a two-section quantumdot superluminescent diode with bending ridge waveguide and a 96% output coupler. Stable mode-locking with an average power up to 60 mW was obtained at a repetition frequency of 2.4 GHz. This performance corresponds to a 25-pJ pulse energy obtain...
متن کاملQuantum-dot saturable absorber and Kerr-lens mode-locked Yb:KGW laser with >450 kW of peak power.
The hybrid action of quantum-dot saturable absorber and Kerr-lens mode locking in a diode-pumped Yb:KGW laser was demonstrated. Using a quantum-dot saturable absorber with a 0.7% (0.5%) modulation depth, the mode-locked laser delivered 90 fs (93 fs) pulses with 3.2 W (2.9 W) of average power at the repetition rate of 77 MHz, corresponding to 462 kW (406 kW) of peak power and 41 nJ (38 nJ) of pu...
متن کاملKerr - lens mode - locked femtosecond laser
We have measured the frequency of the 6s S1/2 − 5d D3/2 electricquadrupole transition of Yb with a relative uncertainty of 1 × 10, νY b = 688 358 979 309 312 Hz ± 6 Hz. A femtosecond frequency comb generator was used to phase-coherently link the optical frequency derived from a single trapped ion to a cesium fountain controlled hydrogen maser. This measurement is one of the most accurate measur...
متن کاملSoliton filtering from a supercontinuum: a tunable femtosecond pulse source
We have investigated the generation of supercontinuum in tapered Y-shaped fibers in the nanosecond pump regime. This fiber used to fabricate the tapers has, in addition, a Gedoped core which enhances the nonlinearity of the material and the Raman gain. The fiber was pumped at 1064 nm in the ns pump regime (0.6 ns pulses and up to 3.2 kW peak power). The taper had a uniform waist of 0.9 μm diame...
