Abstract: | We demonstrate experimentally the influence of ion-pair concentration on the dynamical behaviour of erbium-doped fibre lasers. At low pair densities, the laser has a CW output, while at higher densities it exhibits a self-pulsing behaviour. For intermediate pair concentrations, the output intensity evolves continuously from an infinite train of pulses to a CW steady state as the pumping ratio is increased. |
