Passive mode locking with an active nonlinear directional coupler: positive group-velocity dispersion

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We show that the active nonlinear coupler laser proposed by us can produce picosecond pulse trains in dual-core fiber lasers with positive group-velocity dispersion. These pulses are accurately described by a linearly chirped soliton profile. The linear chirp should make it possible to obtain subpicosecond pulses widths through extracavity chirp compensation.
