    摘要: The present invention relates to compact, low noise, ultra-short pulse sources based on fiber amplifiers, and various applications thereof. At least one implementation includes an optical amplification system having a fiber laser seed source producing seed pulses at a repetition rate corresponding to the fiber laser cavity round trip time. A nonlinear pulse transformer, comprising a fiber length greater than about 10 m, receives a seed pulse at its input and produces a spectrally broadened output pulse at its output, the output pulse having a spectral bandwidth which is more than 1.5 times a spectral bandwidth of a seed pulse. A fiber power amplifier receives and amplifies spectrally broadened output pulses. A pulse compressor is configured to temporally compress spectrally broadened pulses amplified by said power amplifier. Applications include micro-machining, ophthalmology, molecular desorption or ionization, mass-spectroscopy, and/or laser-based, biological tissue processing.

    摘要: An object of the present invention is to provide a laser source capable of simultaneously generating several wavelengths of radiation at desired power ratio between each other. Said radiation of two or more wavelengths can be used for mixing said wavelengths in a non-linear optical media in order to achieve different wavelength radiations than those amplified in the gain media. In the most preferred embodiment, a laser source comprises a dispersive optical element, placed in an optical cavity, having a single optical axis. The dispersive element causes different wavelengths of radiation to travel in slightly different optical paths through the dispersive element. Tuning of the laser is performed by moving or tilting the dispersive element with respect to the axis of the cavity. As a result, desired ratio or proportions of average power are achieved for each of said wavelengths. Having the ability to change the power ratio is important for achieving simultaneous generation of several wavelengths in a single gain media, thus avoiding depletion of the exited state by the dominant wavelength.

    摘要: Compact laser systems are disclosed which include ultrafast laser sources in combination with nonlinear crystals or waveguides. In some implementations fiber based mid-IR sources producing very short pulses and/or mid-IR sources based on a mode locked fiber lasers are utilized. A difference frequency generator receives outputs from the ultrafast sources, and generates an output including a difference frequency. The output power from the difference frequency generator can further be enhanced via the implementation of large core dispersion shifted fibers. Exemplary applications of the compact, high brightness mid-IR light sources include medical applications, spectroscopy, ranging, sensing and metrology.
