摘要: Mode pulling and etalon effects have been claimed to prevent self-starting in passively mode-locked lasers that use fast saturable absorbers. A unidirectional ring geometry significantly reduces backscatter coupling thus should facilitate self-starting. We present supportive evidence demonstrate true self-stabilized, Ti:sapphire erbium fiber lasers.
