All-fiber Mamyshev oscillator enabled by chirped fiber Bragg gratings.

We present a linear cavity self-polarizing Mamyshev oscillator at 1550 nm made fully of polarization-maintaining fibers. The cavity filters are chirped fiber Bragg gratings with a Gaussian reflectivity profile that allow for greater reflectivity, larger bandwidth, and dispersion control. This mode-locked fiber laser architecture shows an unprecedented simplicity while delivering 21.

Femtosecond fiber Mamyshev oscillator at 1550 nm.

We investigated the possibility of reaching nanojoule-level pulse energies in a femtosecond erbium-doped fiber Mamyshev oscillator. In experiments, lasers generate stable pulse trains with energy up to 31.3 nJ, which is comparable to the highest achieved by prior ultrafast erbium fiber lasers.
