Abstract :
We obtained a train of pulses with 390 fs at a repetition rate of 10 GHz from an asynchronous mode-locked Erbium fiber laser by optimizing the intracavity dispersion. The laser operates in a hybrid modelocking mechanism where an asynchronous phase modulation in conjunction with intracavity solitonic lead to a shorter pulse width.
