Abstract


Short pulse erbium-doped fiber laser in anomalous group delay dispersion has been shown to generate soliton output at 1562.4 nm wavelength with 0.4 nm spectral bandwidth. The Q-switching operation was induced by a vanadium oxide polyethylene glycol (V2O5-PEG) film saturable absorber (SA) for all-fiber ring cavity configuration. The pulsed laser has maximum pulse energy of 3.2 nJ, the shortest pulse width of 4.7µs, and maximum output power of 0.4 mW. These findings show that the fabricated vanadium pentoxide film can be an alternative SA device for generating a pulsed laser.
