Generation of Raman dissipative solitons near 1.3 microns in a phosphosilicate-fiber cavity

Opt Express. 2018 Jun 11;26(12):15084-15089. doi: 10.1364/OE.26.015084.

Abstract

An external-cavity generation of powerful ultrashort pulses in an all-fiber scheme by using a new type of phosphosilicate polarization maintaining fiber is investigated. The phosphorus-related Stokes shifted Raman pulse near 1.3 microns is observed. Optimization of Stokes output spectrum depending on pump pulse duration (chirp), energy and output coupling ratio of the cavity is performed. As result, the output energy of highly-chirped pulses compressible to 570 fs reaches 1.6 nJ.
