Abstract

Raman-scattering-assisted noise-like pulse (NLP) generation was achieved by using an appropriate segment of high nonlinearity fiber in an erbium-doped fiber laser. Broadband spectrum with 203 nm 3-dB bandwidth was obtained, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the broadest bandwidth achieved for NLPs. The broadband operation is the result of tailored cavity design, which optimizes various effects including the Raman scattering effect to maximize the bandwidth of NLPs. Further broadening the NLP spectrum up to 294 nm was achieved by using spectral filtering outside the cavity with a polarization beam splitter.
