Multimode fiber (MMF) lasers are emerging as a remarkable testbed to study nonlinear
spatiotemporal physics with potential applications spanning from high energy pulse …

The generation and stable propagation of ultrashort optical pulses tend to be limited by
accumulation of excessive nonlinear phase shifts. The limitations are particularly …

Rapid progress in passively mode-locked fibre lasers,,,,, is currently driven by the recent
discovery of new mode-locking mechanisms, namely, the self-similarly evolving pulse …

Ultrafast fiber lasers have the potential to make applications of ultrashort pulses widespread–
techniques not only for scientists, but also for doctors, manufacturing engineers, and more …

We demonstrate a modelocked ytterbium (Yb)-doped fiber laser that is designed to have
strong pulse-shaping based on spectral filtering of a highly-chirped pulse in the cavity. This …

Nonlinear systems with periodic variations of nonlinearity and/or dispersion occur in a
variety of physical problems and engineering applications. The mathematical concept of …

We report a study of the scaling and limits to pulse energy in an all-normal-dispersion
femtosecond fiber laser. Theoretical calculations show that operation at large normal cavity …

We report a systematic study of all-normal-dispersion mode-locked fiber lasers. Spectral
filtering of a chirped pulse in the cavity is a major component of the pulse shaping in these …

Some background as well as recent progress in the development of femtosecond lasers are
discussed together with a brief outline of a few representative emergent applications in …

We report on the operation of a passively mode-locked fiber ring laser made of purely
normal dispersive fibers. Self-started mode locking can still be achieved in the laser by use …
