✦ Synopsis

We propose and demonstrate a passively mode-locked Erbium-doped fiber laser based on symmetrical nonlinear optical loop mirror. The nonlinear optical loop mirror with intensity-depended transmission can act as an equivalent saturable absorber, which results in passively mode-locking of fiber laser. Pulse trains with fundamental cavity frequency and its various harmonic frequencies have been obtained.

We demonstrate a tunable and switchable dualwavelength passively mode-locked Bi-doped all-fiber ring laser by using nonlinear polarization rotation (NPR) technique. Exploiting the spectral filtering effect caused by the combination of the polarizer and intracavity birefringence, the wavelength separ
