Abstract


An ultrashort pulse erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) in anomalous group delay dispersion (GDD) has been proven to produce a soliton wave production at 1596 nm. The mode-locking operation was generated by employing a vanadium pentoxide-polyethylene glycol (V2O5)-(PEG) film as absorber for all-fiber ring setup. Under anomalous dispersion, the soliton mode-locked laser produced a peak wavelength with 2.7 nm spectral bandwidth and Kelly sidebands. Under this condition, we obtained pulse energy of 210 nJ and pulse width of 1.40 ps. The maximum peak electrical power of 150 kW was calculated at the maximum pump power. These findings shows that the V2O5-PEG film can be a good saturable absorber (SA) device in generating stable mode-locking fiber laser at the 1.55- area.
