Passive, all-fibre source of 30 femtosecond solitons

Abstract

The passive generation of solitonic pulses as short as 30fs from an all-fibre circuit is reported. The circuit comprises a passively mode-locked erbium-doped fibre laser, an erbium-doped fibre amplifier and a short section of dispersion-shifted fibre.
