摘要
Fast-axis instability in mode-locked fiber lasers is demonstrated numerically. The fast-axis instability manifests as the fast mode transferring its energy to the slow mode when the pulse energy is strong enough. The instability is caused by the strong nonlinear birefringence compensating for the linear birefringence.
