Abstract

In order to profit from all the benefits of a waveguide laser device like alignment-free and maintenance-free operation, decoupling from technical noise, and compactness an all fiber setup is highly desirable. Recently, all- fiber lasers utilizing a spectral or a temporal filter have been published, delivering pulse durations down to 179 fs and 195 fs, respectively.this contribution, we report on a different approach by implementing a higher-order-mode (HOM) fiber as dispersion compensation.
