We report the generation of high-repetition-rate pulses from an erbium-doped fiber laser with a phase-driven optical loop mirror as a cavity dumper. The result demonstrates the potential of this novel method for efficient and ultrafast cavity dumping of fiber lasers. {copyright} {ital 1996 Optical Society of America.}
