By exploiting the dysprosium ion in a unique and practical way, the project will create high power mid-infrared light with unprecedented optical efficiency. The project will make use of the unusually wide fluorescence spectrum of the dysprosium ion to produce stable and bandwidth-limited ultra-fast light pulses in the mid-infrared. The proposed light sources will have application in mid-infrared nonlinear optics and will benefit medicine, defence, fundamental physics and manufacturing providing excellent opportunities for Australian research, industry and collaboration.

通过以独特而实用的方式利用镝离子，该项目将创造出具有前所未有的光学效率的高功率中红外光。该项目将利用镝离子异常宽的荧光光谱，在中红外波段产生稳定且带宽有限的超快光脉冲。拟议的光源将在中红外非线性光学中应用，并将有利于医学，国防，基础物理和制造业，为澳大利亚的研究，工业和合作提供绝佳的机会。
