pulse compression

A means of achieving higher peak powers and more efficient harmonic generation by narrowing the pulse width and thus increasing the frequency bandwidth of the output of CW mode-locked lasers. Compression can be achieved by launching the pulse into a single-mode fiber and passing it through a pair of diffraction gratings.
