Schematic of the nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM) configuration incorporating a tapered Ho:ZBLAN photonic crystal fiber. The setup shows counter-propagating pulses within the loop, nonlinear phase ...
Ultrashort mid-infrared (mid-IR) laser pulses are essential for applications such as molecular spectroscopy, nonlinear microscopy, and biomedical imaging, but their generation often relies on complex ...
A compact fiber-based system has been developed to compress mid-infrared laser pulses to 187 femtoseconds using low input ...
