NYCU has developed the first device that can continuously adjust both the spectral peak and bandwidth of pulsed light sources. Led by Assistant Professor Shih-Hsuan Chia, the team created a compact device that manipulates light through optical fibers, achieving unprecedented precision in controlling light generation. This technology enhances the study of light-matter interactions and opens new possibilities for applications in nonlinear spectral analysis and microscopy. The device’s ability to produce light pulses as short as 14 femtoseconds makes it valuable in various scientific and engineering fields. Applications include advanced material research, spectroscopy, and biophotonics.
