In this work, we have developed a method to generate ultra-short pulses below the Fourier limit, extending the concept previously worked in reference 1 for generating sub-diffractive Gaussian beams. Alternatively, we introduce new…
We present a high efficiency source of picosecond pulses derived from a dual cavity optical frequency comb generator. This approach overcomes the limitations of single cavity comb generators that are restricted to efficiencies of a few…
Optical frequency combs are broadband sources that offer mutually-coherent, equidistant spectral lines with unprecedented precision in frequency and timing for an array of applications. Kerr frequency combs in microresonators require a…
We have experimentally demonstrated the all-fiber generation of 1.3-{\mu}m femtosecond pulses via Cherenkov radiation (CR) from an ultrafast Er-doped fiber laser. The experiment shows that the pulses maintain below 40 fs in the range from…
Semiconductor lasers with ultra-low thresholds and minimal footprints are a topic of active research. Such devices require a combination of high quality factor laser cavities with small active region volumes, which drives the quest for…
A reduction of more than 20 dB of the intensity noise at the anti-phase relaxation oscillation frequency is experimentally demonstrated in a two-polarization dual-frequency solid-state laser without any optical or electronic feedback loop.…
We report on two ultrastable lasers each stabilized to independent silicon Fabry-P\'erot cavities operated at 124 K. The fractional frequency instability of each laser is completely determined by the fundamental thermal Brownian noise of…
We present spatial coherence measurements of extreme-ultraviolet light generated using the process of high-harmonic upconversion of a femtosecond laser. Using a phase-matched hollow-fiber geometry, the generated beam is found to exhibit…
We frequency stabilize the output of a miniature stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) laser to rubidium atoms in a microfabricated cell to realize a laser system with frequency stability at the $10^{-11}$ level over seven decades in…
We describe the realization and characterization of a compact, autonomous fiber laser system that produces the optical frequencies required for laser cooling, trapping, manipulation, and detection of $^{87}$Rb atoms - a typical atomic…
Integrating femtosecond (fs) lasers to electron microscopies has enabled direct imaging of transient structures and morphologies of materials in real time and space, namely, ultrafast electron microscopy (UEM). Here we report the…
The most frequency-stable sources of electromagnetic radiation are produced optically, and optical frequency combs provide the means for high fidelity frequency transfer across hundreds of terahertz and into the microwave domain. A critical…
We present a high-power optical parametric oscillator-based frequency comb in the mid-infrared wavelength region using periodically poled lithium niobate. The system is synchronously pumped by a 10-W femtosecond Yb:fiber laser centered at…
We have demonstrated a frequency-stabilized tunable 318.6 nm ultraviolet (UV) laser system for the single-photon 6S1/2 - nP (n = 70 ~ 100) Rydberg excitation of cesium atoms. The 637.2 nm laser produced by single-pass sum frequency…
We report the first mode-locked fiber laser to operate in the femtosecond regime well beyond 3 {\mu}m. The laser uses dual-wavelength pumping and non-linear polarisation rotation to produce 3.5 {\mu}m wavelength pulses with minimum duration…
Due to its exceptional dimensional stability in harsh thermal conditions and excellent mechanical and optical properties, Corning ultra-low expansion (ULE) glass is the material of choice in many high-demanding fields such as aerospace,…
We report a mode-locked Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser with 5GHz repetition rate. Spectral broadening of the 24 fs pulses in a microstructured fiber yields an octave-spanning spectrum and permits self-referencing and active stabilization of…
We generate multiple optical carriers with ultra-low phase noise, over a useable bandwidth of 160 GHz, from an externally injected gain-switched comb source with exceptional low linewidth below 10 Hz. We show successful transmission of 17…
On-chip coherent laser sources are crucial for the future of photonic integrated circuits, yet progress has been hindered by the complex interplay between material quality, device geometry, and performance metrics. We combine…
We propose and demonstrate a system that produces squeezed vacuum using a pair of optical parametric amplifiers. This scheme allows the production of phase sidebands on the squeezed vacuum which facilitate phase locking in downstream…
