Abstract
We report an environmentally insensitive, all-fiberized, polarization-maintained (PM), self-starting, mode-locked Tm fiber laser cavity enabled by a single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) saturable absorber. This produces dissipative solitons at 1876 nm, with a repetition rate of 19.2 MHz, and a maximum average power of 21.5 mW, corresponding to a pulse energy of 1.1 nJ. The output pulse has a duration of 4.2 ps and can be compressed to 391 fs using a grating-based compressor. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of an all-fiberized, all-PM, dissipative-soliton, mode-locked thulium fiber laser using a SWNT saturable absorber.
