The zero dispersion of the fibre is at 823 nm and 800 nm for slow and fast fundamental modes, respectively. It is demonstrated that efficient upshift of the output frequency can be achieved when the pumped radiation is polarized along the slow axis of the fibre. When the average input power reaches 320 mW, about 60% of the output energy is located in one peak at 600 nm and is accompanied by depletion of the pulse inside the anomalous dispersion region.展开更多
