Fibre lasers are now associated with high average powers and very high beam qualities.
Both these characteristics are required by many industrial, defence and scientific …

High‐power laser sources are widely used in industrial precision processing and act as a
new platform for strong‐field physics research using peak power over petawatt. This review …

Two-photon fluorescence microscopy enables scientists in various fields including
neuroscience,, embryology and oncology to visualize in vivo and ex vivo tissue morphology …

In this paper, a review of fiber laser technology as relevant for applications in ultrafast optics
is given. We discuss core enabling fiber technologies, such as fiber amplifiers, all-fiber …

Rare earth-doped fibres are a diode-pumped, solid-state laser architecture that is highly
scalable in average power. The performance of pulsed fibre laser systems is restricted due …

This review presents the technological infrastructure that will be available at the Extreme
Light Infrastructure Attosecond Light Pulse Source (ELI-ALPS) international facility. ELI …

Ultrafast fiber lasers have gained rapid advances in last decades for their intrinsic merits
such as potential of all-fiber format, excellent beam quality, superior power scalability, and …

We report on an ytterbium-doped photonic crystal fiber with a core diameter of 60 µm and
mode-field-area of~ 2000 µm^ 2 of the emitted fundamental mode. Together with the short …

Recent work on high-power fiber amplifiers report on a degradation of the output beam
quality or even on the appearance of mode instabilities. By combining the transversally …

The fiber laser, with its humble beginning in the late 1980s, has undergone tremendous
development in the past decade or so, transforming itself from a research curiosity to a major …
