Abstract
So far the only proven way to produce powerful laser pulses in the 5-fs regime has relied on the hollow-fiber technique.1-2 The extension of this technique to the sub-4-fs regime has been limited by two main reasons: (i) the possibility to extend the achievable spectral broadening preserving the single-mode operation, which is essential for the subsequent compression; (ii) the development of ultrabroadband pulse compressors.
