Fig. 2 Output characteristics of the MO. (a) pulse train; (b) output power (blue diamond markers) and pulse energy (orange circle markers) vs. absorbed pump power; (c) output spectra at different output power; (d) Autocorrelation function (ACF) of the output. Fig. 3 (b) SEM image of the AR-HCF cross-section with a 20 μm scale bar. (c) AR-HCF characteristics including attenuation (orange curve) and simulated group velocity dispersion (GVD, blue curve); the blue dashed line marks the zero-dispersion point. The grey curve shows the broadest MO output spectrum used in the experiment. (d) Far-field beam profile of the AR-HCF output, exhibiting a near-Gaussian mode shape. The noise pattern in the beam image is likely originating from interference caused by the thin-film filter mounted in front of the camera sensor. Fig. 4 Power delivery of the AR-HCF based compressor. (a) input energy (circle markers), output energy (diamond markers) vs. pulse spectral bandwidth; (b) overall efficiency vs. pulse spectral bandwidth. Fig. 5 (a) grating-based compression(green solid line), AR-HCF (cut-back) compression (circle markers) results and its fitting (blue dashed curve) vs. transform-limited calculation (dashed curve); (b) input spectrum (green curve) and output spectrum (orange curve) of the AR-HCF at highest peak power; (c) ACF of pulse compressed by AR-HCF (purple solid curve) and grating pair (green solid curve) and transform-limited result (dashed curve).
