Abstract

Active harmonic mode-locking of Erbium Fiber Ring Lasers (EFRLs) is an established technique for obtaining short pulses at GHz repetition rates. To date all reports on the characterization of such lasers have used techniques that provide incomplete information on the pulse shape and quality, e.g. autocorrelation with optical spectrum, streak camera etc.. Whilst this is largely adequate, direct measurements of pulse amplitude and phase would be extremely useful, facilitating the optimization and detailed understanding of the operation of such lasers.
