Single-mode tellurite glass holey fiber with extremely large mode area for infrared nonlinear applications.

چکیده
We report the fabrication of a large mode area tellurite holey fiber from an extruded preform, with a mode area of 3000microm(2). Robust single-mode guidance at 1.55microm was confirmed by both optical measurement and numerical simulation. The propagation loss was measured as 2.9dB/m at 1.55microm. A broad and flat supercontinuum from 0.9 to 2.5microm with 6mW output was obtained with a 9cm length of this fiber.

Tellurite glass fibers for mid-infrared nonlinear applications
In this chapter, we will review the progress of using tellurite glass nonlinear fibers for mid-infrared nonlinear applications in this chapter. First, we introduce various fabrication approaches for making conventional solid core/clad tellurite glass preforms and structured tellurite glass preforms. Second, two technical difficulties have been found during the early stage of using small-core te...

We have fabricated an ytterbium doped all-glass double-clad large mode area holey fiber. A highly efficient cladding pumped single transverse mode holey fiber laser has been demonstrated, allowing continuous-wave output powers in excess of 1W with efficiencies of more than 80%. Furthermore both Q-switched and mode-locked operation of the laser have been demonstrated.

متن کاملNonlinear femtosecond pulse compression at high average power levels by use of a large-mode-area holey fiber.
We demonstrate that nonlinear fiber compression is possible at unprecedented average power levels by use of a large-mode-area holey (microstructured) fiber and a passively mode-locked thin disk Yb:YAG laser operating at 1030 nm. We broaden the optical spectrum of the 810-fs pump pulses by nonlinear propagation in the fiber and remove the resultant chirp with a dispersive prism pair to achieve 1...
