摘要: Highly efficient parametric amplification and wavelength conversion have been demonstrated in the 1040–1090 nm band. A nonlinear photonic crystal fiber was used to provide anomalous dispersion required for phase matching at 1 μm. 40 dB maximum gain +35 dB idler efficiency achieved subnanosecond pulsed regime by using a spectrally filtered supercontinuum source as small signal.
