Linearly Polarized 1180-nm Raman Fiber Laser Mode Locked by Graphene
In this paper, we demonstrate a linearly polarized 1180-nm passively mode-locked Raman fiber laser using graphene-based saturable absorber (SA). The pump source is a linearly polarized ytterbium-doped fiber laser at 1120 nm. Stable nanosecond mode-locked

Watt-Level Dual-Wavelength Q-Switched Mode-Locked All-Solid-State Tm:CYA Laser
A passively Q-switched mode-locked all-solid-state Tm:CaYAIO4 (Tm:CYA) laser with a MoS2 saturable absorber is demonstrated for the first time. Employing a typical X-type cavity and output coupling mirror of 9%, when the laser diode pump power is higher ...

Watt-Level Diode-End-Pumped Self-Mode-Locked Tm,Ho:LLF Laser
A diode-end-pumped self-mode-locked Tm,Ho:LuLiF4 (LLF) laser is demonstrated for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. At the incident pump power of 3.4 W, the stable self-mode-locked operation of the Tm,Ho:LLF laser was realized without any ...

Mode-locking of mobile discrete breathers [PDF]
We study numerically synchronization phenomena of mobile discrete breathers in dissipative nonlinear lattices periodically forced. When varying the driving intensity, the breather velocity generically locks at rational multiples of the driving frequency.

PT-symmetric mode-locking [PDF]
Parity-time (PT) symmetry is one of the most important accomplishments in optics over the past decade. Here the concept of PT mode-locking (ML) of a laser is introduced, in which active phase-locking of cavity axial modes is realized by asymmetric mode coupling in a complex time crystal. PT ML shows a transition from single- to double-pulse emission as

Passively mode-locked semiconductor lasers and their applications [PDF]
In this paper we present some characterizations of passively mode-locked semiconductor lasers. These lasers are multimode and they exhibit a modulation of their output power even though they are DC-biased.
