Graphene-based passively mode-locked bidirectional fiber ring laser.
We present an all-fiber bidirectional passively mode-locked soliton laser with a graphene-based saturable absorber for the first time to the best of our knowledge. Our design includes a four-port circulator to introduce different sections of cavity for the two counter-propagating pulses, so they have distinct output characteristics. Simultaneous bidirectional operation is achieved by appropriat...
متن کاملDiscrete Set of Separations between Phase-Locked Soliton Pairs in a Passively Mode-Locked Fiber Laser
Passively mode-locked fiber ring lasers and dispersion-managed fiber transmission links are examples of optical dissipative dynamical systems, supporting stable pulses and multi-soliton trains. An example of stable multi-soliton solution with +/-p/2 phase differences, have been predicted theoretically earlier based on the model of complex quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation [1]. More recently, we ...
متن کاملBifurcations and multiple-period soliton pulsations in a passively mode-locked fiber laser.
We observed, numerically and experimentally, multiple-period pulsations of the soliton parameters in a passively mode-locked fiber laser. Pulsation periods can vary from a few to hundreds of round trips. Short and long period pulsations can appear in combination. The new periods in the soliton modulation appear at bifurcation points related to certain values of the cavity parameters.
متن کاملMechanism of intrinsic wavelength tuning and sideband asymmetry in a passively mode-locked soliton fiber ring laser
We have experimentally observed continuous-wavelength tuning in a passively mode-locked fiber ring laser. Depending on the polarization setting, two separated tuning ranges are observed. We show that the wavelength tuning is a result of the existence of birefringence in the laser cavity. We have also shown that the same mechanism is responsible for the power asymmetry of sidebands appearing in ...
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...
