Abstract: The hollow-core fiber structure influence of few-cycle pulse compressor on pulse contrast is investigated experimentally. It is found that a periodic structure of pulses at the tail of the main pulse extended hundreds of picoseconds away. It can be due to the fiber structure and could be eliminated by modifying the structure.
