Abstract
We proposed a tunable mode-locked fiber laser using a double-clad erbium-ytterbium co-doped fiber (DC-EYDFL). A tunable grating was used to achieve the tunability. The pulse width, repetition rate, energy and output power of the generated mode-locked pulses were 240 ns, 862 kHz 5.76 mW and 6.68 nJ at 1570 nm, respectively. The stability of the laser was observed using an RF spectrum analyzer, and the signal-to-noise ratio was more than 40 dB at the fundamental frequency of 862.4 kHz.
期刊介绍:
Innovations in optical fiber technology are revolutionizing world communications. Newly developed fiber amplifiers allow for direct transmission of high-speed signals over transcontinental distances without the need for electronic regeneration. Optical fibers find new applications in data processing. The impact of fiber materials, devices, and systems on communications in the coming decades will create an abundance of primary literature and the need for up-to-date reviews.
Optical Fiber Technology: Materials, Devices, and Systems is a new cutting-edge journal designed to fill a need in this rapidly evolving field for speedy publication of regular length papers. Both theoretical and experimental papers on fiber materials, devices, and system performance evaluation and measurements are eligible, with emphasis on practical applications.
