Quasi mode-locking of coherent feedback random fiber laser
Mode-locking is a milestone in the history of lasers that allows the generation of short light pulses and stabilization of lasers. This phenomenon is known to occur only in standard ordered lasers for long time and until recently it is found that it also occurs in disordered random lasers formed by nanoscale particles. Here, we report the realization of a so-called quasi mode-locking of coheren...
متن کاملCW-pumped polarization-maintaining Brillouin fiber ring laser: II. Active mode-locking by phase modulation
Stimulated Brillouin backscattering in a cw-pumped long optical polarizationmaintaining fiber ring cavity excites spontaneous stable mode-locking. But the shortest pulses allowed by the Brillouin gain bandwidth imply an active modelocking, which we have achieved by using a phase modulator inside the ring. The experiment is carried out in the infrared at 1.319 μm, and in narrow frequency domains...
متن کاملCoherent supercontinuum generation using Er-doped fiber laser of hybrid mode-locking.
Supercontinuum generation is performed using femtosecond laser pulses produced by combining two distinct mode-locking mechanisms of nonlinear polarization evolution with saturable absorption on an Er-doped fiber oscillator. The generated supercontinuum yields a high level of spectral visibility of 93%, without the presence of spontaneous emission of post-amplification, being well suited for pre...
متن کاملMicrolens Integration with Diode Lasers and Coherent Phase Locking ofLaser Arrays
III Novel submillimeter-size lenses have been fabricated in compound semiconductor substrates by mesa etching and heat treatment. These precision large-numerical-aperture microlenses are well suited for diode lasers and laser arrays in miniaturized systems. Alaser array has been efficiently coupled to an external cavity by a microlens array to achieve coherent phase locking. As part of a semico...
متن کاملActive mode-locking of miniature fiber Fabry-Perot laser (FFPL) in a ring cavity
We demonstrate active mode-locking at 10GHz of a 10mm-long fiber Fabry-Perot laser (FFPL) in a ring cavity. We obtained very stable pulse trains without supermode noise. The pulsewidth was about 10ps, which could be shortened to 1.6ps by insertion of highly-nonlinear fiber.
