Abstract
Experiments with varying filter bandwidth in a soliton fiber laser are reported, Continuous tuning over 50 nm was obtained for pulses of < 4 00 fs duration. It is demonstrated that the spectral sidebands due to periodic perturbations may be reduced to at least 17 dB below the peak of the pulse spectrum without affecting pulse duration.
