Abstract
Polarization control in nonlinear polarization rotation based mode-locked fiber lasers is a long-term challenge. Suffering from the polarization drifts induced by environmental disturbances, nonlinear polarization rotation based mode-locked fiber lasers is difficult in continuously operating under the desired pulsation regime thereby substantially hindering their utilizations. The appearance of automatic mode-locking techniques brings the light in addressing this challenge. Combining with various algorithms and electrical polarization control, automatic mode-locking techniques resolve the dilemma of nonlinear polarization rotation based mode-locked fiber lasers. We review the research progress of automatic mode-locking techniques in detail. Furthermore, we comment on the perspectives and potential applications of automatic mode-locking techniques.
