  • Abstract
    We present a class of fibers that exploit light propagation in higher-order modes, and hence decouple the dispersion-versus-mode-area trade-off encountered in conventional fibers. This enables exploiting the multitude of nonlinear optical effects afforded by fibers, at energy levels potentially approaching those of tunable solid-state lasers.
