Abstract:We report on the demonstration of a switchable and adjustable spacing multiwavelength nanosecond pulsed ytterbium-doped fiber laser (YDFL) operating in a modelocking regime by macrobending loss tuning induced in a figure-eight knot shape. The figure-eight knot-based Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) was established by wrapping a section of single-mode fiber into two elliptical loops by twisting one end of the fiber onto the other without splicing. Combining the proposed MZI with a polarization controller (PC) … Show more
