Alarge-ratio stretcher for ultra-short pulses is proposed based on photoniccrystal fiber (PCF). Through proper design of the PCF structure,we obtain over 300-nm wavelength range with flattened dispersion characteristics.Analysis indicates that 1-km of such fiber can broaden over10,000 times for ultra-short pulses with <100-fs pulse-width. Distortion dueto dispersion and nonlinearity is negligible. ©2010 Optical Society of America
