Simultaneous NIR and SWIR wavelength-swept generation over record 329-nm range using swept-pump fiber optical parametric oscillator

摘要

We demonstrate fiber-optical-parametric-oscillator-based swept-wavelength source operating simultaneously in 1.3 μm and 1.9 μm bands. Total wavelength sweep range of 329 nm/s with cumulative speed exceeding 70000 nm/s is achieved by a seeding source generating 25 nm sweep at 6000 nm/s rate.
