报告摘要：

Tightly focused femtosecond laser pulses can be used to modify the refractive index of virtually all types of optical glasses. As the laser-induced modification is spatially limited to the focal volume of the writing beam, this technique enables the fabrication of fully three-dimensional photonic structures and devices that are automatically embedded within the host material. In this talk, I will review our work into the development of novel mid-infrared fiber laser sources and will outline our efforts to fabricate integrated photonic devices for future all-fiber laser systems. In addition, I will present the latest results of our research into miniaturized pulsed chip lasers that are based on femtosecond laser inscribed waveguides.

报告人简介:

Professor Alexander Fuerbach received his PhD degree from Vienna University of Technology in 2001 where he was part of the attosecond laser group of Prof. Ferenc Krausz. In 2000 he joined Femtolasers Produktions GmbH in Vienna as a Research Scientist and later became project manager for the development of novel ultrashort-pulsed Ti:Sapphire oscillators. In 2004 he moved to Australia to take on a role as Research Fellow at the University of Sydney where he studied nonlinear optical pulse propagation effects in novel waveguiding structures.

He later joined Macquarie University where he is currently Associate Professor at the department of physics and astronomy. His principal research interests are the development of novel fiber laser sources for the mid-infrared spectral region as well as the development of miniaturized pulsed waveguide chip lasers.

Alex is also Director of Education and Training for the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Ultrahigh-bandwidth Devices for Optical Systems (CUDOS).
