All-fiber short-wavelength tunable mode-locked fiber laser using normal dispersion thulium-doped fiber by Chen, Shaoxiang, Chen, Yuhao, Liu, Kun, Sidharthan, Raghuraman, Li, Huizi, Chang, Chen Jian, Wang, Qi Jie, Tang, Dingyuan, Yoo, Seongwoo

“…By changing the bending diameter of the fiber, we demonstrated a tunable mode-locked Tm-doped fiber laser with a very wide tunable range of 152 nm spanning from 1740 nm to 1892 nm. Pulses at a central wavelength of 1755 nm were able to be amplified in an all-fiber configuration using the W-type NDTDF, without the use of any artificial short-pass filter or pulse stretcher. …”
