Abstract
We demonstrate a harmonically mode-locked dispersion-managed polarization-maintaining erbium fiber laser that uses photonic crystal fiber for nonlinear pulse compression. The high nonlinearity and large anomalous dispersion of the PCF resulted in significant reduction in the cavity length and increased the long-term stability. The laser cavity, only 36-m-long, yielded stable 1.3 ps pulses at a 40-GHz repetition-rate, with supermode noise suppression of over 60 dB.KeywordsPicosecond PulseSoliton PulseAutocorrelation TraceDispersion Compensate FiberSoliton LaserThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
