A Q-switched fibre laser operating in the 2 mu m region based on nonlinear polarization rotation technique

We demonstrate a Q-switched fibre laser operating at 1949.0 nm, which is based on a nonlinear polarization rotation (NPR) technique. It uses a 2 m long commercial thulium-doped fibre and a 15 m long homemade thulium-ytterbium co-doped fibre as active media. They are pumped respectively by 800 nm sin...
