Abstract

Here, we demonstrate the six-wavelength mode-locking and hybrid mode-locking operation in an erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) with an ultra-long-period grating (ULPG) by properly adjusting the pump power and the cavity parameters. The ULPG is fabricated by using the fused biconical method with a GPX-3000 glass processing system. Study found that, the ULPG exhibits dual-function, that is, mode-locker and multiwavelength filter. Our finding implies that apart from its fantastic sensing application, the ULPG may also possess attractive nonlinear optical property for ultrafast photonics.
