摘要
在理论上分析了利用非线性光学环形镜作为等效可饱和吸收体压缩脉冲进行锁模的物理机制。利用8字形主被动混合锁模的结构在调制频率2.498749 GHz下,在1.543 μm处获得了12 ps的锁模脉冲输出,对应谱宽0.22 nm,时间脉宽积0.33。在抽运功率50 mW情况下,输出脉冲平均功率3.715 mW。在调制频率 2.499344 GHz、?? 2.499114 GHz??和 2.498999 GHz??时分别并获得了2~4阶幅度较为均衡的有理数谐波锁模脉冲序列。
Abstract
The advantages of using NOLM as saturable absorber to compress pulse in mode-locked fiber lasers are analyzed theoretically. Experimentally the NOLM is placed in an actively mode-loked erbium-doped fibre ring laser to form a figure-eight actively and passively mode-locked fibre laser. 12 ps mode-locked pulses centered at 1.543 μm were obtained at the modulation frequency of 2.498749 GHz, with time-bandwidth product of 0.33. 3.715 mW output power is achieved with 50 mW pump power. Meanwhile, 2~4 rational harmonic(RH) mode-locked pulses with uniform amplitude were obtained at the modulation frequency of 2.499344 GHz, 2.499114 GHz, and 2.498999 GHz respectively.
