We review the most recent progress in ultralow-noise mode-locked fiber lasers and fiber-
based frequency-comb sources. With the rapid progress in theory, measurement, and …

Free-electron lasers produce extremely brief, coherent, and bright laser-like photon pulses
that allow to image matter at atomic resolution and at timescales faster than the …

Edited by internationally recognized authorities in the field, this expanded and updated new
edition of the bestselling Handbook, containing many new articles, is aimed at the design …

A fully stabilized all polarization-maintaining Er frequency comb with a nonlinear amplifying
loop mirror with below 0.2 rad carrier-envelope-offset frequency phase noise is …

The time-of-flight of light pulses has long been used as a direct measure of distance,, but
state-of-the-art measurement precision using conventional light pulses or microwaves peaks …

Many advanced applications of X-ray free-electron lasers require pulse durations and time
resolutions of only a few femtoseconds. To generate these pulses and to apply them in time …

The generation of sub‐optical‐cycle, carrier–envelope phase‐stable light pulses is one of
the frontiers of ultrafast optics. The two key ingredients for sub‐cycle pulse generation are …

Femtosecond mode-locked lasers have revolutionized many fields of science and
engineering,,,. Because of their ultralow noise, it has been anticipated that mode-locked …

We present theoretical predictions and experimental measurements for the achievable
phase noise, timing jitter, and frequency stability in the coherent transport of an optical …

Compact bound states of light pulses in ultrafast lasers are known as optical soliton
molecules. They constitute nonlinear superstructures of choice to investigate complex …
