Abstract
Wavelength-tunable dissipative solitons and amplifier similaritons have been obtained by inserting all-fiber Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) filters with different free spectral ranges (FSRs) in a Yb-doped mode-locked fiber laser. The MZI filter is fabricated by splicing one segment of seven-core fiber (SCF) between two segments of single-mode fibers. The bandwidth of the filter depends on the FSR of the modulated interference curve and consequently depends on the tapered fiber diameter. Inserting MZI filters with bandwidths in a fiber laser and applying a tensile strain on the tapered SCF, both wavelength-tunable dissipative solitons and amplifier similaritons have been obtained.
