Improved mode locking of an F-center laser with a nonlinear nonsoliton external cavity

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We demonstrate that solitons are not essential for the operation of the soliton laser. The external cavity employed contains an optical fiber with negative group-delay dispersion and therefore does not support bright solitons. Thus the improved mode locking cannot be attributed to the injection of an N = 2 soliton.
