Journal ArticleDOI
Broad-bandwidth pulse amplification to the 10-μJ level in an ytterbium-doped germanosilicate fiber
TL;DR: The saturation characteristics of pulse amplification in an ytterbium-doped fiber are studied and it is found that the fiber is capable of amplifying the bandwidth of 100-fs pulses at 1 microm.
Patent
Electro-electron optical oscilloscope system for time-resolving picosecond electrical waveforms
TL;DR: In this paper, a system for time-resolving ultra-short electrical waveforms of up to a few hundred gigahertz bandwidth is presented, which utilizes a fast electro-optic modulator capable of sub-picosecond responsivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Second-Harmonic Generation of Super Powerful Femtosecond Pulses Under Strong Influence of Cubic Nonlinearity
Sergey Mironov,Vladimir Lozhkarev,Vladislav Ginzburg,Ivan V. Yakovlev,G.A. Luchinin,Andrey Shaykin,Efim Khazanov,A. A. Babin,E. Novikov,S. Fadeev,Alexander M. Sergeev,Gerard Mourou +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical model of second-harmonic generation under strong influence of cubic nonlinearity was verified in experiment and the double-pass geometry of SHG in an ultrathin crystal on a substrate was discussed in detail.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generation of 85-fsec pulses by synchronous pumping of a colliding-pulse mode-locked dye laser
TL;DR: By synchronously pumping a linear-cavity dye laser that has as one end mirror an antiresonant ring containing a thin saturable absorber jet, this article developed a colliding-pulse mode-locked laser, which is capable of being synchronously amplified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Terahertz pulse imaging in archaeology
J. Bianca Jackson,J. Bianca Jackson,J. Labaune,Rozenn Bailleul-Lesuer,Laura d’Alessandro,Alison Whyte,John W. Bowen,Michel Menu,Gerard Mourou +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a portable fiber-coupled terahertz (THz) time-domain spectroscopic imaging system was used to measure specimens in both transmission and reflection geometry, and present time and frequency-based image modes.
