Abstract

Compact fiber and diode sources of ultrashort pulses so far have not been able to produce significant pulse energies compared to their solid-state counterparts. The highest ultrashort pulse energies from diode or fiber lasers have been at the nanojoule level, at best. Much higher energies can be reached with erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EOFA) whose saturation energy is ~1 μJ. However, the main problem in amplifying ultrashort pulses is that the high peak intensities of high energy ultrashort optical pulses cause pulse break-up in an optical fiber.
