Structures optiques dissipatives en cavité laser à fibre
2011
This thesis presents a study of the nonlinear dissipative dynamics of localized of self organized structures in passively mode-locked fiber laser through nonlinear polarization evolution. We reveal the existence of a gradual transition from the quasi-cw to mode locked dynamics in the multi-pulsing regime. We emphasize on the intermediate state, where various new dynamics are observed. We study collective behaviors of dissipative solitons in the presence of a continuous background. One of the complex and attractive dynamics presented is the "soliton rain", which composed of three field components : continuous modes of background, drifting of solitons and condensed phase solitons. This dynami…
All polarization-maintaining assively mode-locked yb-doped fiber laser : pulse compression using an anomalous polarization-maintaining photonic cryst…

We report the generation of short pulses at 1 μm using an all-polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber configuration. The pulses are provided by an all normal-dispersion Fabry-Perot Yb-doped cavity and are compressed with an anomalous polarization-maintaining photonic crystal fiber (PM PCF). Opposed to standard configurations; here the filtering action is solely performed by the finite bandwidth of the gain medium. The laser generates 8 ps width sech 2 profile pulses at 1046.8 nm with a −10 dB bandwidth of 5.9 nm. After compression using the PM PCF, pulses with an FWHM of 3 ps were obtained, limited by the actual value of the available anomalous dispersion. We also report the changes in the outp…
Development of ultra-fast thulium-doped fiber lasers - Prospects for 2μm-nanophotonics.
2021
Developing highly coherent pulsed sources around the 2 µm wavelengthhas been a particularly dynamic field of research in the last couples of years,due to its numerous applications. In optical telecommunication, the wavelength rangearound 2 µm is one of the most promising solutions to increase the transmission capacitypast the current technological bottleneck. In this context, passively mode-lockedfiber lasers appear as a high potential solution for cheap laser sources, due to their veryhigh coherence and intrinsic compatibility with telecommunication systems.Passively mode-locked fiber lasers at 1,55 µm and their ultrafast dynamics is oneof the specialty of the ICB laboratory, and the aim i…
Dissipative rogue wave generation in multiple-pulsing mode-locked fiber laser
2013
Following the first experimental observation of a new mechanism leading to optical rogue wave (RW) formation briefly reported in Lecaplain et al (2012 Phys. Rev. Lett. 108 233901), we provide an extensive study of the experimental conditions under which these RWs can be detected. RWs originate from the nonlinear interactions of bunched chaotic pulses that propagate in a fiber laser cavity, and manifest as rare events of high optical intensity. The crucial influence of the electrical detection bandwidth is illustrated. We also clarify the observation of RWs with respect to other pulsating regimes, such as Q-switching instability, that also lead to L-shaped probability distribution functions.…
