Theoretical analysis of actively mode-locked fiber ring laser with semiconductor optical amplifier
A theoretical study of active mode-locking fiber loop laser using semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) was presented in this paper. The effects of linewidth broadening factor of SOA on active mode-locking were investigated originally. The relations between parameters of output pulse series and the critical parameters of SOA and other elements in fiber loop were obtained. 2002 Elsevier Science ...
متن کاملA novel mode-locked ring laser based on polarization saturation in a semiconductor optical amplifier
Recently, in our group 800 fs optical pulses were generated in a mode-locked ring laser operated by polarization saturation in a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA). We investigate numerically the generation of sub-picosecond optical pulses in such a configuration, consisting of a SOA and a linear polarizer placed in a ring. Polarization saturation in the SOA takes the role of a saturable abs...
متن کاملNumerical Modeling of a High Repetition Rate Fiber Laser, Mode-Locked by External Optical Modulation of a Semiconductor Optical Amplifier
A theoretical study of a high repetition rate laser source based on a novel mode locking technique is presented. This technique relies on the fast saturation and recovery of a semiconductor optical amplifier induced by an external optical pulse and has been used to obtain 4.3 ps pulses at 20 GHz. A numerical model of the fiber ring laser has been developed describing the mode locking process in...
متن کاملMulti-GHz tunable-repetition-rate mode-locked Nd:GdVO4 laser.
We report on a simple design for a multi-GHz tunable-repetition-rate diode-pumped picosecond laser. Using a plano-Brewster Nd:GdVO4 crystal in a V-folded cavity employing only readily available commercial components, we achieved passive mode-locking with 4.4-ps pulses tunable in the range 2.5-2.7 GHz. This laser is meant to be employed in the MIR experiment that aims at the detection of the Sch...
متن کاملTunable, high-repetition-rate, harmonically mode-locked ytterbium fiber laser.
We report a ytterbium fiber laser mode locked at its 281st harmonic, which corresponds to a repetition rate greater than 10 GHz. The laser produces linearly polarized, 2-ps pulses with up to 38-mW of average output power. The mode-locked pulses are tunable over a 58-nm window centered on 1053 nm.
