Abstract

Femtosecond mode-locked lasers are an essential tool in the physical and life sciences. However, many applications, including biomedical imaging, require complex and expensive auxiliary systems to achieve desirable wavelengths and pulse repetition rates. In this talk I will discuss progress on the development of a complementary approach to femtosecond pulse generation based on Kerr resonators that does not have these limitations. Recent experimental and theoretical studies in fiber Kerr resonators reveal novel pulse parameter scaling-laws and dependencies in resonators based on chirped-pulse solitons, and record-short 120-fs pulses and single-pulse trapping from resonators based on stretched-pulse solitons.
