Abstract
In this article, we study how the choice of parameters of a slow saturable absorber (SSA) affects the stable operation of a soliton fiber comb laser. We show that a shorter recovery time for the SSA does not always lead to shorter modelocked pulses. Instead, increasing the cavity gain plays a critical role in generating stable modelocked pulses with higher energy and shorter durations. We find that more stable, shorter, and more energetic output pulses can be achieved with lower saturation energies of the SSA and/or higher anomalous dispersion within the cavity.
