Article Synopsis
- Fiber mode-locked lasers produce ultrashort pulses and can have varying optical outputs based on cavity adjustments, leading to challenges due to their multistability.
- The study showcases the use of the Soft Actor-Critic algorithm to generate a harmonic mode-locked regime in a fiber laser, utilizing an ion-gated nanotube saturable absorber.
- This research presents a machine-learning approach to effectively manage pumping power and absorber transmission, enabling automatic adjustments to overcome the complexities of nonlinear optical systems.
Optical waveguides covered with thin films, which transmittance can be controlled by external action, are widely used in various applications from optical modulators to saturable absorbers. It is natural to suggest that the losses through such a waveguide will be proportional to the absorption coefficient of the covering material. In this letter, we demonstrate that under certain conditions, this simple assumption fails.
