Pre-Chirp-Managed Adiabatic Soliton Compression in Pressure-Gradient Hollow-Core Fibers

Abstract: Post-pulse-compression is demanded to produce energetic few-cycle pulses. We propose pre-chirp-managed adiabatic soliton compression (ASC) in gas-filled pressure-gradient hollow-core fibers to suppress the detrimental pedestals and therefore significantly improve the compressed pulse quality. We show that two-stage ASC can compress 125 μJ, 130 fs pulses at 2 μm to a nearly two-cycle pulse 15 fs in duration. Our analytical analysis suggests that ASC is in favor of compressing pulses centered at a longer wavelen… Show more

“…Moreover, it plays an important role in the SC process, in particular in terms of its value and sign. For instance, in the standard technique of SC with normal GVD influence, near-transform-limited rectangular and parabolic pulses are generated in the regime of optimum compression [17][18][19][20]. On the other hand, the combination of anomalous GVD and positive cubic nonlinearity allows for having SC in a single medium, such as a fiber.…”

“…This approach to SC is the spectral analogue of adiabatic soliton compression (ASC), which allows reaching chirp-free pulse compression without applying high-order soliton compression. In particular, the authors of [20] achieved pulse compression at 2 µm using a two-stage APC technique, reducing the pulse duration from 130 fs to 15 fs. In this context, a gas-filled pressure-gradient hollow-core fiber is employed to mitigate pedestal effects and improve the quality of the compressed pulse.…”
