Abstract

The 90psec pulses from a cw mode-locked Nd:YAC laser operating at 1.32μm have been initially shortened to l.5psec by means of a fibre/grating compressor arrangement and subsequently propagated through a negatively dispersive optical fibre to generate, through high-order soliton effects, pulses as short as 33fsec. Input peak power and fibre length variations have been performed and the results compared with theoretical predictions
