Abstract

Synchronous nanosecond and femtosecond pulses delivered from a low-repetition-rate Er-doped fiber laser mode-locked by nonlinear polarization evolution is experimentally proposed. Here, the repetition rate is set as ~4.5 MHz by introducing sufficiently long fiber in a ring cavity. By fully exploiting long fiber and anti-saturation absorption characteristics, it is experimentally observed that dissipative-soliton-resonance pulse with the nanosecond-level pulsewidth and femtosecond soliton pulse synchronously propagate in the same cavity. Besides, the pulsewidth of dissipative-soliton-resonance pulse and laser output power could be tailored by finely configuring the bidirectional pump powers. These results provide deep understanding of low-repetition-rate pulse laser and an intriguing way to obtain tunable dual-scale synchronous pulses, indicating the high potential for multiple-pulse laser processing and so on.
