Fundamental Noise Limitations to Supercontinuum Generation in Microstructure Fiber

March 21, 2003
Author(s)
Kristan L. Corwin, Nathan R. Newbury, J M. Dudley, S. Coen, Scott Diddams, K Weber, R Windeler
Broadband noise on supercontinuum spectra generated in microstructure fiber is shown to lead to amplitude fluctuations as large as 50% for certain input laser pulse parameters. We study this noise using both experimental measurements and numerical

Instantaneous and noninstantaneous nonlinear effects in femtosecond pulse propagation

November 1, 2002
Author(s)
H K. Eaton, Scott Diddams, A G. van Engen, Tracy S. Clement, A A. Zozulya
Propagation of intense femtosecond pulses in solids and liquids is investigated experimentally and numerically. Experiments in fusd silica reveal complicated spatio-temporal dunamics including temperal pulse splitting and the generation of spectral

Direct RF to Optical Frequency Measurements With a Femtosecond Laser Comb

April 1, 2002
Author(s)
Scott A. Diddams, D J. Jones, Jun Ye, S T. Cundiff, John L. Hall, J K. Ranka, R S. Windeler
By spanning an optical octave (> 300 THz) with a broadened femtosecond laser frequency comb, we directly measure optical frequency standards at 1064/532nm, 633 nm and 778 nm in terms of the microwave frequency that controls thecomb spacing, which can be
