We report on a long wavelength emitting rare earth doped fiber laser with emission centered at 3.5 {\mu}m and tunable across 450 nm. The longest wavelength emission was 3.78 {\mu}m, which is the longest emission from a fiber laser operating…
We report generation of an ultrafast supercontinuum extending into the mid- infrared in gas-filled single-ring hollow-core photonic crystal fiber (SR-PCF) pumped by 1.7 $\mu$m light from an optical parametric amplifier. The simple fiber…
We demonstrate efficient multicycle terahertz pulse generation at 14.6 THz from large-area lithium niobate crystals by using high-energy (up to 2 J) femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser pulses. Such terahertz radiation is produced by phase-matched…
