Abstract
Dissipative soliton resonance (DSR) with multiple stable states has been experimentally demonstrated in a passively mode-locked Yb-doped fiber laser. The generation of the DSR square pulse has been achieved with the nonlinear optical loop mirror technique. The duration of the square pulse varies from 16 to 123 ns, while the amplitude of the pulse remains constant. Experimentally, by fixing the pump power and changing the orientations of the polarization controllers, we have observed three different square pulses that all operate in the DSR regime. At the same time, we have obtained a wavelength-tunable square pulse, which demonstrates that the DSR and operation wavelength are independent of each other. We also analyzed the ideal state in the DSR regime.
