Abstract
In this letter, a dispersion imbalanced loop mirror (DILM) was constructed by the use of one segment of high dispersion fiber and another segment of much lower dispersion. Based on the nonlinear switching properties of the DILM, a 10 GHz actively and passively mode locked fiber laser was demonstrated for the first time to our knowledge. In this laser, the DILM was acted as not only a passive element to make further compression of the pulse but also an in-band ASE filter to increase the stability of the laser. Optical pulses possessing narrow pulse width (3.1 ps) and low timing jitter (400 fs) were generated successfully.
