The INRS team developed this method, which is now the subject of a patent application. Many applications can benefit from laser wavelengths being tuneable in the infrared region, such as telecommunications<\/a>, micro-machining<\/a>, and bioengineering<\/a>.<\/p>\n Luca Razzari, an associate professor at INRS, and Professor Roberto Morandotti, scientific leader of the Ultrahigh Speed Light Manipulation Laboratory at INRS, have demonstrated that large wavelength tunability can also be achieved using a hollow-core (capillary) fibre filled with nitrogen. This approach readily delivers optical pulses shorter than those of the input laser and with high spatial quality.<\/p>\n
