Abstract
The dynamics of a mode-locked SOA fiber ring are investigated
experimentally and numerically. Generation of near
transform-limited (time-bandwidth product = 0.7) 1.5 um 54 ps FWHM
pulses with a peak power of 2.8 mW at a repetition rate of 960 MHz
is demonstrated experimentally. The experimental results agree
well with the simulation results obtained using a TLLM model. Both
experiments and numerical simulations show how the RF power and
the detuning affect the pulsewidth.
