Technique Stabilizes Femtosecond Pulses

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
A new technique that stabilizes femtosecond (fs) pulses generated in a microresonator could improve devices dependent on such pulses for applications in telecommunications, broadband spectroscopy and astronomy, among others. Last year, a team from Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU) and from EFPL in Switzerland published a paper in Nature Photonics stating that the primary source of noise in microresonator-based optical frequency combs is related to nonlinear harmonic generation mechanisms, rather than the fundamental physical limitations of the devices. That means that, in...Read full article

    astronomy
    The scientific observation of celestial radiation that has reached the vicinity of Earth, and the interpretation of these observations to determine the characteristics of the extraterrestrial bodies and phenomena that have emitted the radiation.
    optical fiber
    Optical fiber is a thin, flexible, transparent strand or filament made of glass or plastic used for transmitting light signals over long distances with minimal loss of signal quality. It serves as a medium for conveying information in the form of light pulses, typically in the realm of telecommunications, networking, and data transmission. The core of an optical fiber is the central region through which light travels. It is surrounded by a cladding layer that has a lower refractive index than...
