Abstract
An interference filter is designed by fusing a segment of multi-core fiber (MCF) between two segments of multimode fibers (MMFs), which is then spliced between two segments of single mode fibers (SMFs). The light is split into the cladding and different cores of the MCF through the first segment of MMF, which is then coupled back into the core of SMF by the second segment of MMF. When the lengths of MCF are selected to be 4 mm and 10 mm, the 3 dB bandwidths of the filters around 1060 nm are 8.40 nm and 4.84 nm, respectively. Applying these filters in an Yb-doped fiber laser mode-locked by nonlinear polarization rotation, stable pulses have been obtained. Compared with the reported interference filters, the filter proposed in this paper has the advantages of simple fabrication process, compact structure and high environmental stability.
