Abstract

© 2019 Optical Society of America. A passively mode-locked Er-doped fiber laser with a fundamental repetition rate of 2.68 GHz is reported. The oscillator operating at a central wavelength of 1558.35 nm has a compact, robust structure and low-noise performance. The timing jitter integrated from 30 MHz down to 300 Hz is 82.5 fs, and the timing jitter performance is analyzed based on the theory model. The amplification and compression of the high repetition rate optical pulses are also investigated. After a three-stage amplifier, the average power is boosted to 430 mW. Meanwhile, based on the nonlinear self-phase modulation effect, the spectral bandwidth is broadened from 7.56 to 19.2 nm, and the corresponding pulse width is compressed to 244 fs.
