Fast polarization dynamics of an erbium-doped fiber ring laser
- School of Physics, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia 30332-0430 (United States)
The polarization dynamics of a unidirectional erbium-doped fiber ring laser has been observed for individual round trips in the cavity. A rich variety of dynamic states, including square-wave pulses and irregular temporal patterns, was observed as operating parameters were changed. A model with coupled delay and differential equations is used to interpret the dynamics. {copyright} {ital 1996 Optical Society of America.}
