Abstract
A nonlinear loop mirror can be used as a solid state saturable loss el ement. The transmission characteristies of the different embodiments o f this mirror are shown to change significantly when it is used in the soliton-forming wavelength range. The implications for its use in a l aser cavity are discussed.
