50-fs pulse generation from a self-starting cw passively mode-locked Cr:LiSrAlF6 laser.
Femtosecond laser physics has been transformed by the advent of the titanium-doped sapphire laser, which has been mode locked by conventional and novel means (e.g., Refs. 1-7) and directly yielded pulses as short as 25 fs.' The observation of selfmode locking5 has led to the realization that the nonlinear refractive index of the laser medium can be used to provide both amplitude modulation, thr...
متن کاملTransient dynamics in a self-starting passively mode-locked fiber-based soliton laser
We describe measurements of spectrally resolved turn-on and turn-off dynamics in a self-starting passively mode-locked fiber soliton laser. An intracavity quantum well optical amplifier whose bias is modulated changes the cavity losses, thereby switching the laser between continuous wave and mode-locked states. We show that during the transients, the laser undergoes a period of self Q switching...
متن کاملWavelength-tunable, passively mode-locked fiber laser based on graphene and chirped fiber Bragg grating.
We demonstrate a wavelength-tunable, passively mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser based on graphene and chirped fiber Bragg grating. The saturable absorber used to enable passive mode-locking in the fiber laser is a section of microfiber covered by graphene film, which allows light-graphene interaction via the evanescent field of the microfiber. The wavelength of the laser can be continuously...
متن کاملUnidirectional ring resonators for self-starting passively mode-locked lasers.
Mode pulling and 6talon effects have been claimed to prevent self-starting in passively mode-locked lasers that use fast saturable absorbers. A unidirectional ring geometry significantly reduces backscatter coupling and thus should facilitate self-starting. We present supportive evidence and demonstrate true self-starting in self-stabilized, passively mode-locked Ti:sapphire and erbium fiber la...
متن کاملSpatio-temporal intensity dynamics of passively mode-locked fiber laser
We present recent results on measurements of intensity spatio-temporal dynamics in passively mode-locked fibre laser. We experimentally uncover distinct, dynamic and stable spatio-temporal generation regimes of various stochasticity and periodicity properties in though-to-be unstable laser. We present a method to distinguish various types of generated coherent structures, including rogue and sh...
