Few-cycle pulse generation from a 3 µm fiber laser

R. I. Woodward, D. D. Hudson, A. Fuerbach, S. D. Jackson: Few-cycle pulse generation from a 3 µm fiber laser [Invited]. CLEO:2018, OSA Technical Digest, The Optical Society, San Jose, USA, 2018, (Paper STh4K.1).

Abstract

We demonstrate the generation of 70-fs pulses (~7 optical-cycles) from a mid-infrared mode-locked Ho:ZBLAN fiber laser using nonlinear compression with step- index chalcogenide fiber. Experiments are supported by numerical modelling, confirming the scalability of this approach.
