ACTIVELY MODE-LOCKED FIBER LASER WITH PULSE INTENSITY FEED-FORWARD

摘要：

　　We report a novel actively mode-locked fiber laser with a pulse intensity feed-forward path.In the novel scheme,the optical pulse is firstly converted to electrical signal,and then fed forward to a dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator,where the optical pulse is modulated by the intensity profile of itself.The laser is modulated by the 10-GHz sinusoidal signal,but by setting the sign of the feed-forward signal,the laser can work at totally different mode-locking regimes(10-GHz mode locking or fundamentally mode locking).So the feed-forward path in the cavity can be used for different functions,i.e.,supermode noise suppression in 10-GHz mode locking and saturable absorption in fundamental mode-locking regime.Due to the simple synchronization to external clock and stable operation,many applications would benefit from the novel laser.
