            Abstract : 
Summary form only given. We have demonstrated an efficient 5 times pulse compressor for medium power pulses in doped and undoped multimode (MM) fibers for the first time to our knowledge. There is no need for any external phase-control and the compressed pulses may be doubled with an efficiency of 50 percent.
