Abstract
We present results obtained with a stretched-pulse polarization additi ve pulse mode locked (P-APM) fiber laser using an environmentally stab le cavity design, With BSO-nm diode-pumping levels of 200-mW 1.2-nJ pu lses with 50 nm of spectrum are obtained, These pulses can be external ly compressed to sub-100 fs, The effects of high output coupling (>80% ) and pumping configuration oh output performance and intracavity puls e dynamics are studied.
