Abstract
Cerenkov radiation type phase matched third harmonic generation is stu died in standard and erbium-doped fibers using femtosecond pulses at 1 .52 mum. A theoretical description of the far-field pattern of the thi rd harmonic is given and shown to agree with the experimental results. Resonance enhancement of third harmonic generation is observed in an erbium-doped fiber.
