Abstract :
We describe a 920 kHz, low-repetition rate, mode-locked Er-doped fiber ring laser. Transform-limited pulse duration of 813 fs, assuming a Gaussian pulse shape is obtained with output pulse energy of 4.3 nJ at 1534 nm. This is the lowest repetition rate in the fundamental mode ever reported to our knowledge.
