Theoretical and experimental studies on a Q-switching operation in an erbium-doped fiber laser using vanadium oxide as saturable absorber

We introduce theoretical analysis for a passively Q-switching operation in an erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) with a saturable absorber (SA). Peak power, repetition rate, and pulse duration have been calculated as functions of pump power and cavity length. The simulation results are compared with th...
