We report the generation of harmonic noise-like mode-locked pulses in a thulium-doped fiber laser. In this laser, mode-locking can be realized through the nonlinear polarization rotation (NPR) technique. The ring cavity configuration uses 5 m of a Tm-dope
A compact Er:fiber ring laser operated at a fundamental repetition rate of 325 MHz is reported. Two gain fibers with opposite dispersion are employed to shorten the fiber laser cavity for high repetition rate and soliton-like pulse generation without losi
We propose a novel photonic technique for microwave frequency measurement based on transversal microwave filters with high resolution. Two parallel microwave filters with sine and cosine frequency responses are obtained by cross gain modulation in a singl
