Based on cascaded Raman scattering, near-infrared (NIR) noise-like pulses (NLPs) were successfully demonstrated using a Yb-doped fiber amplifier system. Through a nonlinear fiber amplifier using a germanium-zirconia-silica Yb 3+ -doped single mode fiber as a gain fiber, the fourth-order Stokes wave (4 th -SW) can be excited to extend the emission peak of approximately 1.2-µm and a 3-dB bandwidth of approximately 130 nm. To further shift the wavelength more efficiently toward 1.3 µm, filtered NLPs with an emission peak at 1075 nm were adopted as seeded pulses to excite the fifth-order Stokes wave (5 th -SW) because of the better conversion efficiency of stimulated Raman scattering without gain competition with Yb-doped fiber. The generated NIR NLPs were shown to be an excellent light source for the photoluminescence emission from three photon absorption of perovskite to illustrate the red shift of the emission peak owing to the reabsorption effect.
