Tunable light source from large band conversion of continuum in a quadratic crystal
Résumé
We consider the conversion of broadband infrared light, generated from photonic crystal fibers, into narrow-band visible pulses, through frequency conversion in quadratic bi-axial crystals. We exploit the nonlinear envelope technique to predict cubic and quadratic ultrabroadband dynamics and to guide the experiments. The combination of photonic crystal fibers and quadratic crystals provides the possibility to achieve low-cost laser-light sources with a great flexibility of tuning the spectral properties and covering wavelengths from UV to the infrared range.
