Journal ArticleDOI
Watt-level fiber-based femtosecond laser source tunable from 2.8 to 3.6 μm
Simon Duval,Jean-Christophe Gauthier,Louis-Rafaël Robichaud,Pascal Paradis,Michel Olivier,Vincent Fortin,Martin Bernier,Michel Piché,Réal Vallée +8 more
TL;DR: A simple and efficient laser system based entirely on erbium-doped fluoride glass fibers that generates high-energy Raman soliton pulses tunable from 2.8 to 3.6 μm at a high average output power, which promises direct applications in laser processing of polymers and biological materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Compact 3-8 μm supercontinuum generation in a low-loss As 2 Se 3 step-index fiber.
Louis-Rafaël Robichaud,Vincent Fortin,Jean-Christophe Gauthier,Stéphane Châtigny,Jean-François Couillard,Jean-Luc Delarosbil,Réal Vallée,Martin Bernier +7 more
TL;DR: This is the first compact supercontinuum source ever reported to reach 8 μm in a standard step-index fiber, and the effects of both the pump power and As2Se3 fiber length on the output characteristics are studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Watt-level and spectrally flat mid-infrared supercontinuum in fluoroindate fibers
Francis Théberge,Nancy Bérubé,Samuel Poulain,Solenn Cozic,Louis-Rafaël Robichaud,Martin Bernier,Réal Vallée +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the infrared supercontinuum (SC) generation in step-index fluoroindate-based fiber by using an all-fiber laser source was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-power supercontinuum generation in the mid-infrared pumped by a soliton self-frequency shifted source
Louis-Rafaël Robichaud,Simon Duval,Louis-Philippe Pleau,Vincent Fortin,Souleymane Toubou Bah,Stéphane Châtigny,Réal Vallée,Martin Bernier +7 more
TL;DR: To the best of the knowledge, this result represents the highest average output power ever achieved from a As2Se3-based mid-IR supercontinuum source with the potential of a high degree of coherence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared supercontinuum generated in concatenated InF3 and As2Se3 fibers.
Francis Théberge,Nancy Bérubé,Samuel Poulain,Solenn Cozic,Stéphane Châtigny,Louis-Rafaël Robichaud,Louis-Philippe Pleau,Martin Bernier,Réal Vallée +8 more
TL;DR: On infrared supercontinuum (SC) generation through subsequent nonlinear propagation in concatenated step-index fluoride and As2Se3 fiber, the broadest SC produced was achieved by optimizing the length of the InF3 fiber.
