Period-doubling bifurcation of dissipative-soliton-resonance pulses in a passively mode-locked fiber laser. (arXiv:1911.07026v1 [physics.optics])
We report on the experimental observation of period-doubling bifurcation of dissipative-soliton-resonance (DSR) pulses in a fiber laser passively mode-locked by using the nonlinear optical loop mirror. Increasing the pump power of the fiber laser, we show that temporally a stable, uniform DSR pulse train could be transformed into a period-doubling state, exhibiting two sets of…
