Pulses as short as 200 fsec at 1.5 ..mu..m and 230 fsec at 1.6 ..mu..m have been generated through a cascade Raman, solitonlike process in a fiber ring oscillator. A dispersion-shifted (lambda/sub 0/ = 1.46 ..mu..m) single-mode fiber was used as the gain medium, which was synchronously pumped by a cw mode-locked Nd:YAG laser operated at 1.32 ..mu..m.
