Optimised one-step compression of femtosecond fibre laser soliton pulses around 1550nm to below 30 fs in highly nonlinear fibre
Optimised compression of femtosecond fibre laser pulses in highly nonlinear fibre is demonstrated. Specifically reported are compressed pulse durations below 30 fs using a simple setup where a single sub10 cm segment of highly nonlinear fibre is directly spliced to the output pigtail of a commercial femtosecond fibre laser. The compressed pulse quality is confirmed through frequency resolved op...
متن کاملSquare Lattice Elliptical- Core Photonic Crystal Fiber Soliton-Effect Compressor at 1550nm
In this paper, we investigate the evolution of supercontinuum and femtosecond optical pulses generation through square lattice elliptical-core photonic crystal fiber (PCF) at 1550 nm by using both full-vector multipole method (M.P.M) and novel concrete algorithms: symmetric split-step Fourier (SSF) and fourth order Runge Kutta (RK4) which is an accurate method to solve the general nonlinear...
متن کاملEffect of delayed nonlinear response on femtosecond optical pulse compression by use of an organic crystal-cored fiber in the normal dispersion region.
We investigate the effect of delayed nonlinear response time on pulse compression, using an organic crystal-cored fiber in the normal dispersion region. With up to third-order phase compensation, a 100-W, 100-fs hyperbolic-secant pulse is compressed to ~10 fs with a delayed nonlinear response time as well as without it. It is shown that third-order phase adjustment can compensate for the phase ...
متن کاملTwo-crystal, synchronously pumped, femtosecond optical parametric oscillator.
We demonstrate a femtosecond optical parametric oscillator based on two nonlinear crystals synchronously pumped by a single ultrafast laser for efficient intracavity signal amplification and output power enhancement. By deploying two identical MgO:PPLN crystals in a single standing-wave cavity, and two pump pulse trains of similar average power from the same Kerr-lens-mode-locked Ti:sapphire la...
متن کاملNonlinear dynamics inside femtosecond enhancement cavities.
We have investigated the effect of intracavity nonlinear dynamics arising from enhanced peak powers of femtosecond pulses inside broad-bandwidth, dispersion-controlled, high-finesse optical cavities. We find that for chi(3) nonlinearities, when a train of femtosecond pulses are maximally coupled into a cavity by active stabilization of its frequency comb to the corresponding linear resonances o...
