To effectively achieve HRR pulses in fiber lasers, dissipative four-wave-mixing mode-locking is a promising method. In this work, we demonstrated an HRR pulsed fiber laser based on a virtually imaged phased array(VIPA), serving as a comb filter. Due to the high spectral resolution and low polarization sensitivity features of VIPA, the 30 GHz pulse with high quality and high stability could be obtained. In the experiments, both the single-waveband and dual-waveband HRR pulses were achieved. Such an HRR pulsed fiber laser could have potential applications in related fields, such as optical communications.展开更多

To extend the depth range of current OCT systems, two novel systems with ultralong depth range were developed in this study. One is the orthogonal dispersive SDOCT （OD-SDOCT）, and the other is the recirculated swept source （R-SS） interferometer/OCT. No compromise between depth range and depth resolution is required in both systems. The developed OD-SDOCT system realized the longest depth range （over 100 mm） ever achieved by SDOCT, which is ready to be modified for depth-encoded parallel imaging on multiple sites. The developed R-SS interferometer achieved submicron precision within a depth range of 30mm, holding potential in real-time contact-free on-axis metrology of complex optical sys- tems.展开更多
