We report on an innovative configuration of a supercontinuum laser based on an Yb-doped nonlinear microstructured fiber. Due to this particular fiber design combining amplification and nonlinear properties, a wideband output spectrum is generated in the fiber under the Q-switched regime. By exploiting stimulated Brillouin scattering, high peak power pulses are achieved and contribute to a spectral broadening due to a nonlinear wavelength conversion process. Both infrared (1000-1200 nm) and visible (650-750 nm) spectra are generated with an average power of 200 mW.
我们报道了一种基于掺镱非线性微结构光纤的超连续谱激光器的创新配置。由于这种特殊的光纤设计结合了放大和非线性特性，在调Q模式下光纤中产生了宽带输出光谱。通过利用受激布里渊散射，实现了高峰值功率脉冲，并且由于非线性波长转换过程导致光谱展宽。产生了平均功率为200 mW的红外（1000 - 1200 nm）和可见光（650 - 750 nm）光谱。
