Materials for optical fiber lasers: A review
TL;DR: The relevance of the material in high power fiber laser technologies is reviewed, and where appropriate, materials-based paths to the enhancement of laser performance will be underscored.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distributed ultrafast fibre laser
TL;DR: A DUF fibre laser based on a linearly chirped fibre Bragg grating, where the total cavity length is linearly changeable as a function of the pulse wavelength, providing a simple, stable, low-cost, ultrafast-pulsed source with controllable and changeable cavity frequency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Successive soliton explosions in an ultrafast fiber laser.
TL;DR: The huge soliton explosions show that the exploding behavior could operate in a sustained, but periodic, mode from one explosion to another, which the authors term as "successive soliton Explosions".

Supercontinuum generation in photonic crystal fiber
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of numerical and experimental studies of supercontinuum generation in photonic crystal fiber is presented over the full range of experimentally reported parameters, from the femtosecond to the continuous-wave regime.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endlessly single-mode photonic crystal fiber.
TL;DR: An effective-index model confirms that an all-silica optical fiber made by embedding a central core in a two-dimensional photonic crystal with a micrometer-spaced hexagonal array of air holes can be single mode for any wavelength.

Femtosecond, picosecond and nanosecond laser ablation of solids
TL;DR: Theoretical models and qualitative explanations of experimental results are presented in this paper for femtosecond laser ablation of solid targets by 0.2-5000 ps Ti: Sapphire laser pulses.

Visible continuum generation in air–silica microstructure optical fibers with anomalous dispersion at 800 nm
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate experimentally that air-silica microstructure optical fibers can exhibit anomalous dispersion at visible wavelengths, and exploit this feature to generate an optical continuum 550 THz in width, extending from the violet to the infrared.

77-fs pulse generation from a stretched-pulse mode-locked all-fiber ring laser
TL;DR: By incorporating a section of large positive-dispersion fiber in an all-fiber erbium ring laser, a fully self-starting source of 77-fs pulse with 90 pJ of energy and greater than 1 kW of peak power at a 45-MHz repetition rate is obtained.
