Novel systems via nonlinear frequency conversion of fibre-amplified ultrafast semiconductor lasers

This thesis presents the development of novel, high-power and high-energy ultrashort-pulse sources by exploiting nonlinear frequency conversion of Yb3+-doped-fibre (YDF)-amplified compact semiconductor lasers. Being highly efficient, compact and flexible, such topology offers tremendous opportunitie...
