We present a comprehensive study of dispersion managed ultrashort-pulse generation in Nd-doped polarization maintaining all-fiber laser at a 920 nm wavelength. We implement a linear laser scheme with a chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG) serving as a semitransparent mirror and semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) as a mode-locker and as a second non-transparent mirror. Complete 1064 nm emission filtering is ensured by 920/1064 wavelength division multiplexer. The dispersion compensation by CFBG was sufficient to reach anomalous net dispersion in the shortest laser scheme allowing us to investigate mode-locking regimes in the −0.05 ps 2 ÷ 0.24 ps 2 net dispersion range by varying the length of the passive fiber. With this approach we demonstrate high order harmonic mode-locking at dispersion closer to zero and large energy span near-parabolic shape single pulse operation in anomalous dispersion regime. The investigation is supported by numerical simulations used to optimize the laser resonator design and to investigate intracavity pulse evolution

Abstract

We present a comprehensive study of dispersion managed ultrashort-pulse generation in Nd-doped polarization maintaining all-fiber laser at a 920 nm wavelength. We implement a linear laser scheme with a chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG) serving as a semitransparent mirror and semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) as a mode-locker and as a second non-transparent mirror. Complete 1064 nm emission filtering is ensured by 920/1064 wavelength division multiplexer. The dispersion compensation by CFBG was sufficient to reach anomalous net dispersion in the shortest laser scheme allowing us to investigate mode-locking regimes in the −0.05 ps 2 ÷ 0.24 ps 2 net dispersion range by varying the length of the passive fiber. With this approach we demonstrate high order harmonic mode-locking at dispersion closer to zero and large energy span near-parabolic shape single pulse operation in anomalous dispersion regime. The investigation is supported by numerical simulations used to optimize the laser resonator design and to investigate intracavity pulse evolution
