TL;DR: In this paper, the femtosecond soliton generation in the region of the zero group velocity dispersion wavelength of a single-mode dispersion shifted optical fiber has been experimentally studied, both spectrally and temporally.

TL;DR: An all-fibre integrated Brillouin ring laser including a 100m holey fiber is presented in this article, which yields comb-like spectra due to four-wave mixing between different BrillOUin Stokes orders.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new sequential method for the design of decentralized control systems is presented, where controller synthesis is conducted on a loop-by-loop basis, and at each step the designer obtains an explicit characterization of the class C of all compensators for the loop being closed that results in closed-loop system poles being in a specified closed region D of the s-plane, instead of merely stabilizing the closed loop system.

TL;DR: In this paper, a broad-band, 100 nm, spectral continuum with an average power > 1W was derived from a CW source and electroabsorption modulator operating at a 10 GHz repetition rate.

TL;DR: In this paper, a 770 nm source with variable (50 ps to 2 ns) pulse duration and repetition rates up to 25 MHz was demonstrated using seeded Yb/Er amplifier and second-harmonic generation in periodically poled potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP).
