Abstract

We experimentally generated the duration-controllable square-wave pulse from an L band dissipative soliton (DS) fiber laser based on the dispersive Fourier transformation (DFT) technique. The rectangular spectrum emitted from an L band dissipative soliton fiber laser is mapped into a time-domain coherent rectangular waveform through the DFT technique. The duration of the square-wave pulse can be controllable with the adjustments of the pump power. The results demonstrate that it is an effective and flexible way to achieve duration-controllable square-wave pulses by combinating with DFT technique and DS fiber laser.
