High energy dissipative soliton mode-locked fiber oscillator based on a multipass cell
基于多通单元的高能量耗散孤子锁模光纤振荡器

To investigate the energy scaling level of large-mode-area photonic crystal fiber-based dissipative soliton mode-locked fiber oscillators under limited pump power, a multipass cell is inserted in the cavity to lower the repetition rate of the system, and thus higher single energy level can be mapped under the same average power level. High energy mode-locked fiber lasers based on two spectral filters with different bandwidths are demonstrated both working in the all-normal dispersion regime at a repetition rate of 15.58 MHz. Employment of filters with FWHMs of 6nm and 12 nm can achieve stable mode-locked pulses with average powers of 3.73 W and 4.9 W, corresponding to single pulse energies as high as 239 nJ and 314 nJ, respectively. The FWHM durations of the dechirped pulses by a transmission grating pair can reach 56 fs and 75 fs, which can generate pulses with peak powers exceeding 3MW in both cases.
