Wide bandgap semiconductors play more and more important roles in both scientific researches and industrial applications.The unique wide bandgap properties provide a platform for flexible functional design for crystal growth,defect engineering,interface engineering,and device construction.Meanwhile,the underlying physical
A mode-locked ytterbium-doped rod-type fiber laser with 85 ~tm core diameter is developed based on the nonlinear polarization evolution in an all-normal-dispersion ring cavity, in which a uniaxial birefringent plate is used as the spectral filter. Average power up to 16 W is obtained at the repetition rate of 58 MHz, and the pulse duration is compressed to 182 fs with a grating-pair compressor. The output laser pulses show very good beam quality and power stability.
By inversing the signal and idler in a two-stage noncollinear optical parametric amplifier which is,respectively,pumped by the second harmonic and fundamental wave of femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser at repetition rate of1 kHz,the carrier-envelope phase(CEP)passively stabilized pulses with a tunable wavelength from 1.1 to 1.6 lm are obtained with maximum energy of 95 lJ at 1.3 lm under the pump energy of 500 lJ.The CEP jitter of pulses is 108 mrad measured by an f-2f interferometer.This work demonstrates a new way to efficiently generate tunable near-infrared femtosecond laser pulses with self-stabilized CEP.
