Abstract
Femtosecond mode-locked lasers are an important tool for the physical and life sciences. However, applications such as 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 fiber Kerr resonators. Recent experimental and theoretical results reveal a range of new phenomena including the shortest pulses observed to date from a fiber Kerr resonator
