Sources of spectrally broadband and coherent light are necessary for frequency metrology and ultrashort pulse generation. Near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths are practical for such devices because of the emergence of robust and reasonably priced femtosecond lasers operating in this part of spectrum. This further enabled pulse preserving and coherent, so called all-normal dispersion supercontinuum (ANDi...
In this paper, a node-free anisotropic hollow-core anti-resonant fiber has been proposed to give low transmission loss in the near-IR to mid-IR spectral regime. The proposed silica-based fiber design shows transmission loss below 10 dB/km at 2.94 μm with multiple low loss transmission bands. Transmission loss of 1 dB/m up to 4 μm is also predicted.
We experimentally demonstrate spectral compression of mJ fs pulses by self phase modulation in silica glass. Spectral narrowing by factor 2.4 of near-transform-limited pulses is shown, with good agreement between experiment and numerical simulation.
A quadratic nonlinear index-guiding silica PCF is optimized for efficient second-harmonic generation through dispersion calculations. Zero group-velocity mismatch is possible for any pump wavelength above 780 nm. Very high conversion efficiencies and bandwidths are found.
