Embodiment Construction

[0084] First, refer to Figure 1 to Figure 4 , reference has been made to these drawings in the preceding part of this specification. However, for figure 2 , it should be mentioned that, in addition to figure 2 In addition to constructing the compressor 7 using a dispersion mirror compressor 8 schematically shown in , it is also possible to use one or more prism pairs 8', or one or more grating pairs, or a combination of a grating pair and a prism pair, Or a combination of a dispersive mirror and one or more prism pairs to construct the compressor 7 . All these embodiments of the compressor 7 operate to recompress the pulses output from the hollow fiber waveguide 3, as known per se.

[0085] exist image 3 , schematically shows the cross-section of the hollow fiber 3A of the waveguide 3, and from this illustration it can be seen that the hollow core 10 of the hollow fiber 3A has a radius a and an entire inner diameter equal to 2a.

[0086] refer to Figure 4 , shows a ...

Abstract

A device for increasing the spectral bandwidth of optical pulses, comprises a hollow fiber waveguide (3A), optical components (5; 6) for focusing the beam (1) into the hollow fiber waveguide (3A) and for recollimating the beam at the exit of the hollow fiber waveguide, the hollow fiber waveguide (3A) being contained in an air-tight chamber (3B) filled with a gas at a given pressure; the length of the hollow fiber (3A) is such that, for a given input pulse energy and gas pressure, the energy contained in a fundamental propagation mode of the optical pulses that has minimum propagation losses exhibits substantially periodic oscillations over the full length (Lf) of the hollow fiber waveguide (3A) and reaches a local maximum at the output end (13) of the said hollow fiber waveguide.
