We numerically demonstrate a broadband parametric gain around 2 µm using a tapered Photonic crystal fiber.
We report on the conception, fabrication and characterization of a new concept of optical fiber enabling a precise control of the ratio between the 2 nd and 4 th-order of chromatic dispersion (respectively β$_2$ and β$_4$) at 1.55 µm which is at the heart of the Four-Wave-Mixing (FWM) generation. For conventional highly nonlinear fiber the...
Since the first proof-of-principle experiments 25 years ago, quantum metrology has matured from fundamental concepts to versatile and powerful tools in a large variety of research branches, such as gravitational-wave detection, atomic clocks, plasmonic sensing, and magnetometry. At the same time, two-photon interferometry, which underpins the...
Ce travail rapporte la conception, la fabrication et la caractérisation d'une fibre optique mircrostructurée air/silice effilée permettant une conversion de fréquence large bande par le processus de mélange à quatre ondes vers le moyen infra-rouge. Nous démontrons expérimentalement une bande de gain paramétrique de près de 100 nm. Une...
We present the simulation, fabrication, and characterization of large area microstructured fiber tapers which enables broadband phasematching conditions of the four wave-mixing process. These silica-based tapers are intended to serve as a nonlinear gain medium for intense and high average power Fiber Optical Parametric Chirped Pulse Amplifier...

In this communication we present results dealing with the precise management of dispersion coefficients into two highly nonlinear fiber structures (a tapered PCF and an all-solid fiber) for far-detuned frequency conversion towards 2µm.
