Abstract

Miniature lasers: done Raman Gas-phase lasers small enough to fit in a credit card or hand-held laser pointer could soon become a reality. A hollow-core photonic crystal fibre based gas cell has been developed, containing a tenth of a microlitre of hydrogen in a 5-metre-long cell. Laser light can be easily launched into this cell, and its practicality has been demonstrated by using it in a compact Raman laser. Acetylene-filled cells proved their worth in a compact all-optical fibre system for laser frequency stabilization.
