We present the first demonstration of sub-3 cycle optical pulses at 3.1 mu m central wavelength generated through self-compression in the anomalous dispersion regime in a dielectric. The pulses emerging from this compact and efficient self-compression setup could be focused to intensities exceeding 10(14) W/cm(2), a suitable range for high field physics experiments. Numerical simulations performed with a 3D nonlinear propagation code, provide theoretical insight on the processes involved and support our experimental findings. (C) 2013 Optical Society of America
