TL;DR: Using the synchronously operated streak camera, dual components of the fluorescence decay of 9-alkyl substituted polymethine saturable absorbing dyes were detected with picosecond resolution.

TL;DR: In this paper, transform-limited pulses of 5-6 ps were generated at 10 GHz using an electroabsorption modulator in conjunction with a dispersive transmission filter based on a chirped fibre Bragg grating.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate a high power broadband laser source for low coherence interferometry that is based on a simple three mirror diode-pumped c.w. Cr 3+ laser.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarise a number of recent experimental developments in the field of ultrafast compact all-fibre lasers, including: ionically-doped coloured glass saturable absorbers, Tm:fibres utilising graphene around 2 μ m; alternative layered materials including MoS 2 ; passively synchronised, coupled-cavity ultrafast dual-wavelength fibre lasers; and schemes for the generation of high repetition rate femtosecond pulses based on phase modulation, and spectral masking of CW radiation.

TL;DR: It is shown that the linear Talbot effect and nonlinear Raman compression occurred in different sections of the fiber, the lengths of which could be varied through adjustments in the input pulse power.
