Tunable red-light source by frequency mixing from dual band Er/Yb co-doped fiber laser.

چکیده
We report an all solid state laser device producing tunable dual wavelength emission in the near IR region (1060nm, and 1550 nm) by use of an Er/Yb co-doped fiber. Generation of continuous-wave radiation around 630 nm is then demonstrated by extra-cavity sum frequency mixing in a Periodically Poled Lithium Niobate (PPLN) crystal. Quasi phase matching conditions are obtained over 7 nm to generate tunable coherent light in the red spectral range.

Ultra-wideband microwave photonic phase shifter with a 360° tunable phase shift based on an erbium-ytterbium co-doped linearly chirped FBG.
A simple photonic approach to implementing an ultra-wideband microwave phase shifter based on an erbium-ytterbium (Er/Yb) co-doped linearly chirped fiber Bragg grating (LCFBG) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The LCFBG is designed to have a constant magnitude response over a reflection band, and a phase response that is linear and nonlinear in two sections in the reflection band. Wh...

A compact tunable 10 W picosecond source based on Yb-doped fiber amplification of gain switch laser diode has been demonstrated. A gain switch semiconductor laser diode was used as the seed source, and a multi-stage single mode Yb-doped fiber preamplifier was combined with two large mode area double-clad Yb-doped fiber main amplifiers to construct the amplification system. The tunable pulses wi...
متن کاملHigh average power, widely tunable femtosecond laser source from red to mid-infrared based on an Yb-fiber-laser-pumped optical parametric oscillator.
We report on the highly efficient generation of widely tunable femtosecond pulses based on intracavity second harmonic generation (SHG) and sum frequency generation (SFG) in a MgO-doped periodically poled LiNbO(3) optical parametric oscillator (OPO), which is pumped by a Yb-doped large-mode-area photonics crystal fiber femtosecond laser. Red and near infrared from intracavity SHG and SFG and in...
متن کاملFiber four-wave mixing source for coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering microscopy.
We present a fiber-format picosecond light source for coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering microscopy. Pulses from a Yb-doped fiber amplifier are frequency converted by four-wave mixing (FWM) in normal-dispersion photonic crystal fiber to produce a synchronized two-color picosecond pulse train. We show that seeding the FWM process overcomes the deleterious effects of group-velocity mismatch an...
متن کاملMid-infrared difference-frequency generation source pumped by a 1.1–1.5-mu m dual-wavelength fiber amplifier for trace-gas detection
Continuous-wave mid-infrared radiation near 3.5 mm is generated by difference-frequency mixing of the output of a compact 1.1 1.5-mm dual-wavelength fiber amplif ier in periodically poled LiNbO3. The diode sidepumped amplif ier is constructed with double-cladding Yb-doped fiber followed by single-mode Er/Yb codoped fiber. Output powers of as much as 11 mW at 3.4 mm are obtained, and spectroscop...
