The generation of femtosecond optical pulses 1 has opened up a range of applications from real-time monitoring of chemical reactions through to ultrahigh-bit-rate optical communications 2, and has led ...
a, Schematic diagram of dissipative soliton formation in SMF lasers and MMF lasers. b, An illustration of a typical STML MMF laser layout. c, Pulse reactions for three mechanisms as intermode ...
Ultrafast lasers are known to generate very short light pulses, mostly of the order of picoseconds or femtoseconds. Ultrafast lasers are based on techniques like mode-locking to form a train of pulses ...
