  text: Up to 400 mW of near-IR (1370-1500 nm) femtosecond pulses are generated from
    an optical parametric amplifier directly driven by a Yb:fiber oscillator delivering
    100\&\#x00A0;fs pulses at 1036 nm. The process is seeded by a stable supercontinuum
    obtained from a photonic crystal fiber. We use a single pass through a 3 mm, magnesium
    oxide-doped, periodically poled LiNbO3 downconversion crystal to produce a near-IR
    pulse train with a remarkable power stability of 1.4 % (RMS) during one hour.
    Tuning is achieved by the temperature and the poling period of the nonlinear crystal.
