The generation of a picosecond pulse train is demonstrated taking advantage of the cross‐gain occurring in a dispersion‐oscillating fibre. The resulting frequency‐converted signal is detuned by more than 20 nm from the pump and can be temporally compressed by a factor of 2 compared with the input sinusoidal pump wave.
