The year 2009 marks the tenth anniversary of the first report of white-light supercontinuum
generation in photonic crystal fibre. This result had a tremendous impact on the field of …

Microwires and nanowires have been manufactured by using a wide range of bottom-up
techniques such as chemical or physical vapor deposition and top-down processes such as …

Numerical simulations of the onset phase of continuous wave supercontinuum generation
from modulation instability show that the structure of the field as it develops can be …

We report a comprehensive investigation of femtosecond continuum generation in single
crystals of several common laser host materials. The absolute spectral energy density, pulse …

We give a full description of a state-of-the-art femtosecond transient spectrometer. The setup
has been put together under full consideration of all technical and conceptual developments …

Ultrabroadband supercontinuum light expanding from ultraviolet to 6.28 μ m is generated in
a centimeter-long fluoride fiber pumped by a 1450 nm femtosecond laser. The spectral …

The nonlinear optics of Si photonic wires is discussed. The distinctive features of these
waveguides are that they have extremely large third-order susceptibility χ^(3) and dispersive …

In this study, we report the unequivocal demonstration of midinfrared mode-locked pulses
from quantum cascade lasers. The train of short pulses was generated by actively …

We study experimentally and numerically the temporal features of supercontinuum
generated with a continuous-wave ytterbium-doped fiber laser. We show that the temporal …

Photonic systems provide access to extremely large bandwidths, which can approach a
petahertz. Unfortunately, full utilization of this bandwidth is not achievable using standard …
