传统的高非线性光纤（HNLF）设计针对高场约束进行了优化，但也固有地易受色散波动的影响。这种设计上的折衷使光纤参量混频器不能同时具有高的功率效率和扩展的工作带宽。使用一种新的光纤波导设计，我们已经制造和测试了一类新的HNLF，具有显着较低的水平的色散波动，同时保持高水平的场限制相比，在传统的HNLF。利用该光纤首次实现了工作在短波红外波段的全光纤参量振荡器。2012美国光学学会Optical Society of America
Conventional highly-nonlinear fiber (HNLF) designs are optimized for high field-confinement but are also inherently susceptible to dispersion fluctuations. The design compromise prevents fiber-optical parametric mixers from possessing high power efficiency and extended operating bandwidth simultaneously. Using a new fiber waveguide design, we have fabricated and tested a new class of HNLF that possesses a significantly lower level of dispersion fluctuations while maintaining a high level of field-confinement comparable to that in conventional HNLFs. The fiber was used to demonstrate an all-fiber parametric oscillator operating in short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) band with a watt-level pump, for the first time. (C)2012 Optical Society of America
