Ultrashort pulses from the soliton laser

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We report the production of 50-fsec FWHM pulses directly from the soliton laser and 19-fsec pulses with compression in an external fiber. The 19-fsec FWHM corresponds to just under four optical cycles at the laser wavelength of 1.5 μm. We argue that these limits are set by dispersion properties of the control and compression fibers.
