2.1 μm Band Dissipative Soliton Resonance Mode-Locked Ho-Doped Tunable Fiber Laser

Tunable Ho-doped soliton fiber laser mode-locked by carbon nanotube saturable absorber

We demonstrate sub-picosecond holmium-doped fiber laser mode-locked with a broadband carbon nanotube saturable absorber. Ultrashort pulse operation has been obtained for the wavelength range of 2030 – 2100 nm with output power up to 60 mW and repetition rate of 15.7 MHz. In te n s it y, 1 0 d B /d iv 212

Widely tunable Tm-doped mode-locked all-fiber laser

We demonstrated a widely tunable Tm-doped mode-locked all-fiber laser, with the widest tunable range of 136 nm, from 1842 to 1978 nm. Nonlinear polarization evolution (NPE) technique is employed to enable mode-locking and the wavelength-tunable operation. The widely tunable range attributes to the NPE-induced transmission modulation and bidirectional pumping mechanism. Such kind of tunable mode...

High-power graphene mode-locked Tm/Ho co-doped fiber laser with evanescent field interaction

Mid-infrared ultrafast fiber lasers are valuable for various applications, including chemical and biomedical sensing, material processing and military applications. Here, we report all-fiber high-power graphene mode-locked Tm/Ho co-doped fiber laser at long wavelength with evanescent field interaction. Ultrafast pulses up to 7.8 MHz are generated at a center wavelength of 1879.4 nm, with a puls...

Dispersion management in a harmonically mode-locked fiber soliton laser.

Harmonically mode-locked Er-fiber soliton lasers have become a reliable source of high-repetition-rate picosecond pulses in high-speed communications and photonic analog-to-digital conversion systems because of their low-noise, dropout-free operation. We have fabricated such a laser with a strongly dispersion-managed cavity and modeled its operation, and we have found that dispersion management...
