Ultrafast fiber laser system for biomedicine

A team of scientists from India has demonstrated its new ultrafast yellow fiber laser system that has a compact size and generates high-power laser beams. It is possible to adjust the laser system that in turn provides perfect laser beam quality, resulting in the creation of a practical yellow light source generating ultrafast laser beam pulses.

To be more precise, fiber lasers with the yellow spectral range are considered to be very useful for definite medical procedures. Nevertheless, their wavelengths are generally produced by applying large and inefficient copper vapor laser systems, dye lasers, and optical parametric oscillators. 

Even though their application is wide, they have great disadvantages, for instance, “low level of average power, the lack of an optimal spatial laser beam profile, limited or no wavelength tunability, and broad output pulses.” The conversion of mid-infrared laser beam light into yellow one requires a two-step nonlinear frequency change, therefore, it can be adjusted from 570 to 596 nm. 

Herewith, such a wavelength range emitted by the fiber laser is regarded as a very potential for a variety of applications. This fiber laser system shows a reliable, high-power, ultrafast, adjustable yellow emission in a rather simple experimental configuration.

Additionally, the applications of such fiber laser technology include not only biomedicine but also full-color video projection and other numerous spectral fields thanks to a sought-after laser beam wavelength range. Nonlinear frequency conversion allows for changing mid-infrared laser beam light into yellow one that can be adjusted from 570 to 596 nm.

It should be noted that fiber lasers play a crucial role in numerous applications because they produce numerous photons in a short period to offer high-intensity levels and accuracy without arousing thermal damage. Moreover, nowadays there is no commercially available yellow laser system that offers the required parameters, and that would stand to gain from that wavelength range.

The use of ultrafast fiber lasers enables scientists to overcome the current limitations in a single experimental configuration. The laser beam frequency of the ultrafast mid-infrared laser system with a peak wavelength has been doubled in two various nonlinear crystals, herewith, the scientists employed not complex fiber optic components available in any conventional laboratory to reach a high-power, adjustable, ultrafast yellow fiber laser source.

The fiber laser system has been already tested and offered tunable ultrafast laser beam emission with significant average power promising for different applications, involving spectroscopy, material processing, and imaging. The laser system’s operation demonstrates high stability over a long duration.
