    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a methods and systems for high speed laser surgery. In some implementations, the combination of mid-infrared (mid-IR) laser radiation with micro-scanning technology allows for large tissue ablation rates with minimal thermally affected zones, where micro-scanning distributes the heat generated by laser surgery over a large tissue area. Micro-scanning technology is compatible with hollow core fiber technology which can be implemented to deliver near diffraction limited mid-IR laser beams into the vicinity of the target area. Micro-scanning technology is compatible with hand tools for direct replacement of mechanical surgical tools such as scalpels as well as robotic surgery. Micro-scanning technology is also compatible with endoscopic beam delivery and can be combined with endoscopic tissue analysis. Tissue analysis can be performed with optical imaging technology as well as other analytical tools such as mass spectrometers.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing laser texturing of solid substrates are disclosed. The texturing may be used to provide grayscale images obtainable from substrates, which may include steel, aluminum, glass, and silicon. In some embodiments, images may be obtainable from the substrate by modifying the reflective, diffractive, and/or absorptive features of the substrate or the substrate surface by forming random, periodic, and/or semi-periodic micro-structure features on the substrate (or substrate surface) by an ultrafast laser pulse train. The ultrafast pulse train may be modulated in order to vary, for example, optical exposure time, pulse train intensity, laser polarization, laser wavelength, or a combination of the aforementioned. The ultrafast pulse train and the substrate may be scanned with respect to each other to provide different optical energies to different regions of the substrate (or substrate surface). In some embodiments, the image is provided by making one or more passes of the ultrafast laser pulse train relative to the substrate.

    Abstract: A pulse transformer for modifying the amplitude and phase of short optical pulses includes a pulse source and an adaptively controlled stretcher or compressor including at least one fiber Bragg grating (FBG) configured to receive pulses from the pulse source and having a first second-order dispersion parameter (D21). The pulse transformer further includes at least one optical amplifier configured to receive pulses from the FBG and a compressor configured to receive pulses from the at least one optical amplifier. The compressor has a second second-order dispersion parameter (−D22), an absolute value of the first second-order dispersion parameter (|D21|) and an absolute value of the second second-order dispersion parameter (|−D22|) that are substantially equal to one another to within 10%.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for precision control of microresonator (MR) based frequency combs can implement optimized MR actuators or MR modulators to control long-term locking of carrier envelope offset frequency, repetition rate, or resonance offset frequency of the MR. MR modulators can also be used for amplitude noise control. MR parameters can be locked to external reference frequencies such as a continuous wave laser or a microwave reference. MR parameters can be selected to reduce cross talk between the MR parameters, facilitating long-term locking. The MR can be locked to an external two wavelength delayed self-heterodyne interferometer for low noise microwave generation. An MR-based frequency comb can be tuned by a substantial fraction or more of the free spectral range (FSR) via a feedback control system. Scanning MR frequency combs can be applied to dead-zone free spectroscopy, multi-wavelength LIDAR, high precision optical clocks, or low phase noise microwave sources.
