Routes to fiber delivery of ultra-short laser pulses in the 25 fs regime

Opt Express. 2009 Feb 2;17(3):1240-7. doi: 10.1364/oe.17.001240.

Abstract

Femtosecond laser pulses came of age and found applications in many fields of life-sciences that call for dispersion-managed guiding of very short optical pulses. We investigate the potential for delivering 25-fs, nanojoule pulses from a Ti:Sapphire laser through optical fibers with lengths of up to 2m.
