Abstract

I report on new type of all-fiber gas-phase devices using gas-filled hollow-core photonic crystal fibre. These include an efficient quasi-CW pumped hydrogen Raman converter, a self-contained laser frequency stabilisation unit based on acetylene-filled hollow-core PCF and electromagnetically-induced transparency acetylene cell
