摘要
We report on nonlinear experiments pumped with high power femtosecond pulses from passively mode-locked thin disk Yh YAG laser a nonlinear fiber compression experiment, generating 33 fs pulses with 18 W average power and a fiber-feedback parametric oscillator generating 19 W of signal power in the 1.5mum region and 7.8 of idler power at a wavelength of 3.57mmu.
