Fiber lasers have seen progressive developments in terms of spectral coverage and
linewidth, output power, pulse energy, and ultrashort pulse width since the first …

In this brief review we consider the relatively new design of the pulsed fiber lasers, namely
lasers with the fiber saturable absorber (FSA). Main advantage of this design consists in a …

A novel passively Q-switched all-fiber laser using a single mode-multimode-single mode
fiber device as the saturable absorber based on the Kerr effect of multimode interference is …

We demonstrate all-fiber passively Q-switched erbium lasers at 1570 nm using Tm^ 3+-
doped saturable-absorber fibers. The absorption cross section of a Tm^ 3+-doped fiber at …

We demonstrate for the first time, to our knowledge, an all-fiber erbium-doped mode-locked
laser in which mode-locking (ML) is realized by the combination of nonlinear polarization …

Generation of ultrashort pulses in an all-fiber Erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) cavity with
doped fiber saturable absorber (DFSA) is demonstrated for the first time. The doped fiber …

Dynamic population gratings (DPGs) in rare-earth doped fibers are prevalent devices in fiber
lasers for the production of single-longitudinal-mode emission and wavelength self …

We demonstrate an all-fiber passively Q-switched Yb-doped laser using a piece of Sm-
doped fiber as a saturable absorber. The laser was pumped by two 25W, 975 nm fiber …

We demonstrate a novel passively pulsed all-Yb^ 3+ all-fiber laser pumped by a continuous-
wave 915-nm pump laser diode. The laser was saturable absorber Q-switched at 976 nm …

A simple Q-switched erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) is proposed and demonstrated by
using a 2-m-long thulium-doped fiber (TDF) as a passive saturable absorber (SA). The EDFL …
