摘要： An optical fiber and a broadband light source that can generate SC light having a broader bandwidth. A broadband light source 1 is equipped with a seed light source 11 and an optical fiber 12. The seed light source 11 outputs light having a central wavelength in the wavelength range of 1500 nm to 1650 nm. The optical fiber 12 outputs supercontinuum light a result of input of the light output from the seed light source. The optical fiber 12, which has a zero dispersion wavelength in the wavelength range of 1300 nm to 1500 nm and an effective area of 12 μm2 or less at the central wavelength, outputs supercontinuum light having a wavelength bandwidth expanded to 1000 nm or more.

摘要： A nonlinear optical signal-treating apparatus can suppress the distortion of pulse light to be inputted into an optical fiber to an allowable level or less. The apparatus comprises a pulse light source for outputting first pulse light, a first optical fiber, a second optical fiber that is spliced with the first optical fiber and has a mode-field diameter smaller than that of the first optical fiber, and a light-introducing system for inputting the first pulse light into the first optical fiber. The second optical fiber receives the first pulse light and generates second pulse light having a newly produced wavelength. The peak power ratio of the first pulse light outputted from the first optical fiber to that inputted into the first optical fiber and the pulse width ratio of the first pulse light outputted from the first optical fiber to that inputted into the first optical fiber are 0.5 to 1.5.

摘要： The present invention relates to a light source apparatus having a structure for stably supplying broadband pulsed light having a wavelength spectrum with an excellent flatness over a wide band. The light source apparatus employs, as a seed light source, a short-pulsed light source having such an excellent output pulse characteristic that the frequency bandwidth extending until the output pulse drops by 10 dB or 20 dB from a peak is 5 THz or more. The light source apparatus also includes a broadband light producing fiber having an optical characteristic suitable for combining with the short-pulsed light source. The broadband light producing fiber inputs pulsed light from the pulsed light source, and produces the broadband pulsed light by utilizing a nonlinear optical phenomenon. This structure yields broadband pulsed light having such a wavelength spectrum that a region whose power fluctuation is suppressed to 6 dB or less extends over 100 nm or more.
