Abstract :
We report the study of self-pulsing behavior in erbium-doped fiber laser due to the ion-pair formation and scattered feedback. We observed the high doping concentration of the laser to be the main cause of the pulsing phenomenon. We also demonstrate that the self pulsing can be suppressed by resonance pumping.
