Abstract

We propose a new scheme for generating a pedestal-free, femtosecond soliton pulse train by utilizing quasi-adiabatic high order soliton pulse evolution in dispersion decreasing fiber in conjunction with the intermediate pedestal suppression stage. A compression factor over 250 was achieved from 10 GHz sinusoidal input, to 207 fs soliton pulse train.
