Abstract :
Needs of science and industry for compact laser sources with ultra-broad spectrum or specially shaped pulse waveforms can be satisfied on fiber-optic platform. Here we address transformation of ultrashort optical pulses in a variety of optical fibers aiming synthesis of specially shaped pulses and single-pulse flat-top supercontinuum. Results are discussed in the context of possible applications and experimental implementations.
