Mode-locked fiber laser technology to date has been limited to sub-3 {\mu}m wavelengths, despite significant application-driven demand for compact picosecond and femtosecond pulse sources at longer wavelengths. Erbium- and holmium-doped…
We report the first mode-locked fiber laser to operate in the femtosecond regime well beyond 3 {\mu}m. The laser uses dual-wavelength pumping and non-linear polarisation rotation to produce 3.5 {\mu}m wavelength pulses with minimum duration…
We report on a long wavelength emitting rare earth doped fiber laser with emission centered at 3.5 {\mu}m and tunable across 450 nm. The longest wavelength emission was 3.78 {\mu}m, which is the longest emission from a fiber laser operating…
We demonstrate ultrashort pulse generation from a fluoride fiber laser co-doped with holmium and praseodymium. To date the majority of work focused on short pulse generation from this class of fiber laser has employed loss modulators in the…
We report mode-locked ~1550 nm output of transform-limited ~180 fs pulses from a large mode-area (diameter ~ 50 {\mu}m) guided-wave erbium fluorozirconate glass laser. The passively mode-locked oscillator generates pulses with 25 nm…
Broadband wavelength tuneability can ensure a new level of versatility for laser systems and extend areas of their applications. Principle limitations of achieving wide tuning wavelength ranges are generally defined by the spectral…
For the first time, we present the pump power-controlled wavelength-tunable mode-locked fiber laser in the L-band (1565 nm to 1625 nm), achieved by all-polarization maintaining (all-PM) nonlinear polarization rotation (NPR). The wavelength…
We demonstrate a novel approach to achieve wavelength-tunable ultrashort pulses from an all-fiber mode-locked laser with a saturable absorber based on nonlinear Kerr beam clean-up effect. This saturable absorber was formed by a single-mode…
We demonstrate a mid-infrared dysprosium-doped fluoride fiber laser with a continuously tunable output range of 573 nm, pumped by a 1.7 {\mu}m Raman fiber laser. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the largest tuning range…
A novel mode-locked fiber laser based on offset splicing technology between two kinds of graded index multimode fibers is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The offset splice spot structure acts as a saturable absorber via nonlinear…
We firstly report mode-locked square-wave pulse in Yb-doped fiber laser based on graded index multimode fiber of reverse suturable absorption. By adjusting the pump power, the width of the square-wave can be tuned range from 350 ps to 52.6…
We demonstrate mode-locking of a thulium-doped fiber laser operating at 1.94\mu m, using a graphene-based saturable absorber. The laser outputs 3.6ps pulses, with~0.4nJ energy and an amplitude fluctuation~0.5%, at 6.46MHz. This is a simple,…
Mid-infrared saturable absorber mirror is successfully fabricated by transferring the mechanically exfoliated black phosphorus onto the gold-coated mirror. With the as-prepared black phosphorus saturable absorber mirror, a continuous-wave…
We report on an environmentally stable, Yb-doped, all-normal dispersion, mode-locked fibre laser that is capable of creating broadband pulses with ultra-low repetition rates. Specifically, through careful positioning of fibre sections in an…

Rare-earth-doped fiber lasers are promising contenders in the development of spectroscopy, free-space communications and countermeasure applications in the 3 - 5 {\mu}m spectral region. However, given the limited transparency of the…
For the first time, we introduce a rapid wavelength-swept, passively mode-locked fiber laser in an all-polarization-maintaining and all-fiber configuration. Achieving an exceptional wavelength sweep rate of up to 19 kHz through external…
We experimentally demonstrate the realization of a half-polarization-maintaining (half-PM) fiber laser, in which mode-locking is provided by a reflective multimode-interference saturable absorber (SA). In the specially designed SA, linearly…
