摘要
We demonstrate a passively harmonic mode-locked(PHML) fiber laser operating at the L-band using carbon nanotubes polyvinyl alcohol(CNTs-PVA) film. Under suitable pump power and an appropriate setting of the polarization controller(PC), the 54^(th) harmonic pulses at the L-band are generated with the side mode suppression ratio(SMSR) better than 44 dB and a repetition frequency of 503.37 MHz. Further increasing the pump power leads to a higher frequency of 550 MHz with compromised stability of 38.5 dB SMSR. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration on the generation of L-band PHML pulses from an Er-doped fiber laser based on CNTs.
