Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) possess both remarkable optical properties and high potential for
integration in various photonic devices. We overview, here, recent progress in CNT …

Polarization control in nonlinear polarization rotation based mode-locked fiber lasers is a
long-term challenge. Suffering from the polarization drifts induced by environmental …

Graphene oxide (GO) has been used for optical intensity manipulation and short pulse
shaping. Most interestingly, it can be used as a broadband light absorber. Such property has …

In this paper, we report a flexible wavelength-, pulse-controlled mode-locked all-fiber laser
based on a novel fiber optic Lyot filter. The wavelength, pulse duration and spectral …

We study a single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composite as a
saturable absorber (SA) for pulse generation in Yb-doped fiber lasers. The saturable …

Chirp-free solitons have been mainly achieved with anomalous-dispersion fiber lasers by
the balance of dispersive and nonlinear effects, and the single-pulse energy is constrained …

To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first demonstration of a mode-locked
polarization-maintaining Yb fiber laser that incorporates a liquid-crystal-on-silicon-based …

We investigate free-running dual-comb pulses with overlapping spectra and well-controlled
repetition rate difference in a single birefringent fiber cavity. Multiple linear and nonlinear …

Polarization-based filtering in fiber lasers is well-known to enable spectral tunability and a
wide range of dynamical operating states. This effect is rarely exploited in practical systems …

We propose and demonstrate a widely tunable passively Q-switched Ho^ 3+/Pr^ 3+-
codoped ZrF_4-BaF_2-LaF_3-AlF_3-NaF fiber laser operating in the 2.8 μm mid-infrared …
