Tunable Mid-Infrared Ultrafast Soliton Molecules from a Kerr-Lens Mode-Locked Few-Cycle Cr:ZnS Laser
We report on the generation and precision manipulation of soliton molecules based on a Kerr-lens mode-locked (KLM) single-crystal Cr:ZnS laser at 2.4 μm. By fine-tuning the cavity group-delay dispersion profile, bi-soliton states with pulse durations between 55 fs and 98 fs with temporal separations between 348 fs and 604 fs have been observed and characterized.
