The accelerating demand for bandwidth capacity in backbone links of terrestrial communications systems is projected to exceed 1Tb/s by 2002. Lightwave carrier frequencies and fused-silica optical fibers provide the natural combination of high passband frequencies and low-loss me…

Demand for large bandwidth increases constantly by the development of Internet technology. The capacity of the erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) band itself is not sufficient to satisfy this bandwidth demand and new communication windows should be opened. However, providing lo…
In this thesis two previously separate fields of study are brought together: optical micromanipulation and ultrashort laser research. Here, the benefits of combining the high peak powers of ultrashort pulsed lasers and conventional optical micromanipulation techniques are explor…
In my thesis, I have demonstrated the development of fiber based infrared lasers and devices for applications in medicine, spectroscopy and metrology. One of the key accomplishments presented in this thesis for medical applications is the demonstration of a focused infrared lase…
