Abstract
We demonstrate a tunable actively mode-locked fiber laser at 2 μm band. A segment of 4 m Tm-Ho-co-doped fiber is used as gain medium. Active mode locking pulse is realized by using intensity modulation and the signal source is high frequency sinusoidal signal. A tunable narrow bandwidth optical filter is used to narrow laser linewidth, suppress noise and achieve wavelength tuning. Stable actively mode-locked pulses with up to 2.2 GHz repetition rate is obtained, corresponding to 649 order harmonic mode-locked pulse train. The pulse width is about 200 ps. The signal-to-noise ratio of RF spectrum is 68 dB. The optical tuning range is 1907 nm~1927 nm.
