Abstract

This work presents our recent research on the development of high pulse energy and narrow linewidth fiber lasers spanning from the near-infrared to the mid-infrared spectral domains, based on different antiresonant hollow-core fibers filled with active gases. We then discuss how the obtained lasers are used for photoacoustic gas sensing and bioimaging, such as real-time detection of CO2 with sub-ppm concentration and brain imaging. In the second part of this invited paper, we briefly present the development of novel multi-functional optoelectronic fibers with integrated metallic electrodes and microfluidic channels for electrophysiology and drug delivery in the brain, respectively with chronic and acute in vivo results.
