Dispersion-mode pulsed laser.

چکیده
A new self-consistency condition in pulsed lasers with strong intracavity dispersion imposes dispersion modes with specific cavity-length dependent pulse rates, utilizing pulse-train self-imaging properties of a temporal Talbot effect. We give an experimental demonstration of such a laser operation, using a long fiber cavity. We also demonstrate temporal Talbot imaging of a train of short pulses that propagate along large distances of dispersive fibers.

Kerr nonlinearity and dispersion characterization of core-pumped thulium-doped fiber at 2 μm.
A nonlinear coefficient of 3.6-4.1 W-1 km-1 and group velocity dispersion of -20 ps2/km of a commercial core-pumped thulium-doped fiber have been evaluated using degenerate four-wave mixing at 2 μm. The anomalous dispersion behavior of the fiber has been confirmed by linear measurements with an all-fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI). Additionally, no pum...
متن کاملInnovative solutions to realize stable and reliable ultra-short pulsed lasers for industrial applications
Mode-locked (ML) lasers are currently used in many applications as diverse as microscopy, medicine, micromachining, or metrology. To achieve the phase locking and obtain the ML regime in laser cavity, the laser can be built in such a way that losses are high for continuous wave regime and reduced for pulsed regime. This loss modulation can be obtained by different phenomena but each mode-lockin...
متن کاملSub-100-fs 1.87 GHz mode-locked fiber laser using stretched-soliton effects
Current pulsed fiber lasers that are capable of delivering stable sub-100-fs pulses at megahertz repetition rates require intracavity pulse energies in the nanojoule range. Scaling these lasers to gigahertz repetition rates necessitates, therefore, very high average power levels and complex cladding-pumped configurations. Here we report a type of stretchedsoliton all-fiber laser that generates ...
متن کاملAngioma serpiginosum successfully treated by a single session of intense pulsed light therapy
Angioma serpiginosum (AS) is a nevoid capillary malformation developed congenitally or thereafter. The AS stops growing after puberty and may remain persistent throughout life. The pulsed dye laser (PDL) and KTP are used to treat the AS usually after several sessions. We treated a patient with AS with only one session of intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy. A 40-year-old lady with Fitzpatrick sk...
متن کاملInfluence of shielding gas composition on weld structure in pulsed Nd: YAG laser welding
This work studied the effect of additions of carbon dioxide to argon shielding gas on the weld shape and microstructure of ST14 steel in pulsed Nd: YAG laser welding. By additions of carbon dioxide up to 15%,the weld area and depth/width ratio decreases while rising of carbon dioxide up to 25% causes increasing of weld area and depth/width ratio. It is observed that the weld metal microstructur...
