Wavelength-stabilized tunable mode-locked thulium-doped fiber laser beyond 2 mu m

Camille Sophie Brès, Moritz Bartnick, Gayathri Bharathan

We report the development of a widely tunable mode-locked thulium-doped fiber laser based on a robust chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG). By applying mechanical tension and compression to the CFBG, an overall tunability of 20.1 nm, spanning from 2022.1 nm ...
