Novel Analytic Theory for Laser Mode-Locking

The time-domain ABCD matrix formalism is based on the propagation of a Gaussian pulse which is characterized by the pulsewidth and chirp. In this paper, we will perfect this method and derive time-domain ABCD matrices for more optical devices. Especially, we extend this perfected theory to analyze the principle of passive mode-locking by reasonable approximation though, as we know, the output pulse generated from passive mode-locking fiber laser is of sech-shape. It is attractive because it can present a fairly apparent view to understand the mechanism of fiber lasers as well as analytic results to understand the pulse characteristics.

Multiwavelength Dispersion-Tuned Actively Mode-Locked Erbium-Doped Fibre Ring Laser with Gain Competition Suppression

Multiwavelength dispersion-tuned actively mode-locked erbium-doped fibre ring laser is demonstrated by incorporating a section of highly nonlinear fibre （HNLF） in the laser cavity. The HNLF and the time gate element （modulator） in the fibre laser successfully suppress the gain competition in the erbium-doped fibre, and thus enable multiwavelength operation. Simultaneous generation of 10 GHz pulses up to eight different wavelengths is achieved. Wavelength, spacing and modes number tuning are investigated by changing fibre cavity length, dispersion, and erbium-doped fibre amplifier power, respectively.

An Easily Switchable Dual-Wavelength Passively Mode-Locked Erbium Fiber Laser

A simple scheme of switchable dual-wavelength passively mode-locked fiber laser is demonstrated. The laser can be flexibly switched among different mode-locked states simply by tuning the cavity loss while keeping all the other cavity parameters fixed. As the cavity loss increases, the mode-locked fiber laser operates at the long-wavelength, dual-wavelength, and short-wavelength states, successively. In addition, these states can be conveniently switched without losing the mode-locked operation and the switching process is reversible as the cavity loss decreases. The mechanism is qualitatively explained by the balance between the fiber gain and the cavity loss.
