All-fiber femtosecond Cherenkov radiation source.
An all-fiber femtosecond source of spectrally isolated Cherenkov radiation is reported, to the best of our knowledge, for the first time. Using a monolithic, self-starting femtosecond Yb-doped fiber laser as the pump source and the combination of photonic crystal fibers as the wave-conversion medium, we demonstrate milliwatt-level, stable, and tunable Cherenkov radiation at visible wavelengths ...
متن کاملOptical frequency up-conversion by supercontinuum-free widely-tunable fiber-optic Cherenkov radiation.
Spectrally-isolated narrowband Cherenkov radiation from commercial nonlinear photonic crystal fibers is demonstrated as an ultrafast optical source with a visible tuning range of 485-690 nm, which complementarily extends the near-infrared tuning range of 690-1020 nm from the corresponding femtosecond Ti:sapphire pump laser. Pump-tosignal conversion efficiency routinely surpasses 10%, enabling m...
متن کاملHigh power NIR fiber-optic femtosecond Cherenkov radiation and its application on nonlinear light microscopy.
We reported a record high power (>250 mW) and compact near-infrared fiber-optic femtosecond Cherenkov radiation source and its new application on nonlinear light microscopy for the first time (to our best knowledge). The high power femtosecond Cherenkov radiation was generated by 1.03 μm femtosecond pulses from a portable diode-pumped laser and a photonic crystal fiber as a compact, flexible, a...
متن کاملAttosecond metrology in the few-optical-cycle regime
The polarization gating method in combination with few-opticalcycle driving pulses with controlled waveform is a powerful technique for the generation of isolated few-cycle attosecond pulses. We show that such a technique allows one to generate attosecond pulses tunable in a broad spectral region, corresponding to more than 26 eV. Complete temporal characterization of the attosecond pulses has ...
متن کاملUltrashort optical-vortex pulse generation in few-cycle regime.
We generated a 2.3-cycle, 5.9-fs, 56-μJ ultrashort optical-vortex pulse (ranging from ~650 to ~950 nm) in few-cycle regime, by optical parametric amplification. It was performed even by using passive elements (a pair of prisms and chirped mirrors) for chirp compensation. Spectrally-resolved interferograms and intensity profiles showed that the obtained pulses have no spatial or topological-char...
