Laser technology confines light inside a resonator containing a gain medium, a material with quantum properties that can amplify light. As laser resonators are generally far larger than the wavelength ...

Researchers in China led by Lilin Yi at Shanghai Jiao Tong University developed apparatus and software algorithms allowing automatic 'intelligent control' over the femtosecond pulses generated by mode ...

Mode-locked lasers are imperative for the generation and application of coherent optical frequency combs. Low noise is necessary for many applications. However, the current super low noise MLLs are ...

IIIF provides researchers rich metadata and media viewing options for comparison of works across cultural heritage collections. Visit the IIIF page to learn more. This object was made under direction ...

Mode-locked fibre lasers, featuring ultrafast temporal information, ultrahigh peak energy, and exceptional stability, have become essential tools in modern optics and industries, including ...

Because pulse trains achieve excellent performance with a simple laser setup, passively mode-locked fiber lasers (MLFLs) based on nonlinear polarization evolution (NPE) have numerous applications.
