Self-similar erbium-doped fiber laser with large normal dispersion
We report a large normal dispersion erbium-doped fiber laser with self-similar pulse
evolution in the gain fiber. The cavity is stabilized by the local nonlinear attractor in the gain
fiber through the use of a narrow filter. Experimental results are accounted for by numerical
simulations. This laser produces 3.5 nJ pulses, which can be dechirped to 70 fs with an
external grating pair.
