There are many applications for broad bandwidth infrared laser sources, including optical frequency metrology (Udem et al., 2002), precision spectroscopy (Holzwarth et al., 2000) and optical ...

Part of the challenge is that the optical fiber inside the cladding is often very small — as few as 9 microns. That’s a small target to hit without some alignment help, which [Les] uses a ...
