Characterization of pulse operation in depressed-cladding erbium doped fiber laser / Nur Sabirah Azhari

There has been intense work on the pulse operation in the conventional (C-) band, long wavelength (L-) band as well as in the 2 μm region. Nevertheless, as increasing demands for bandwidth have now pushed the envelope into the short-wavelength (S-band) region, it is of interest to further expand thi...
