Abstract

The dissipative soliton resonance (DSR) pulses are demonstrated experimentally in an all polarization-maintaining (PM) thulium-doped mode-locked fiber laser. The mode-locked operation is achieved using of the nonlinear amplifying loop mirror mechanism (NALM). Each loop of the apparatus includes an independently controlled amplifier and a section of gain fiber. The experiment is carried out at a central wavelength of 1969.8 nm and 3.5 ns as the maximum output pulse width. The time domain and spectrum characteristics of output pulse are analyzed with different positions of PM-1950 fiber in the NALM loop. In addition, the DSR pulse properties are experimentally verified by changing the length of the PM-1950 fiber spliced into the NALM loop. We have achieved environmentally stable mode-locked pulses at 3, 2.1, and 1.62 MHz corresponding to the maximum pulse energies of 6.8, 20, and 29.1 nJ. The output pulse is stable and robust at different ambient temperatures.
