摘要
We have proposed a sideband-controllable fiber soliton laser by means of chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBGs). Each side of the spectral sidebands of laser could be removed by using a CFBG with proper dispersion. Numerical simulations have well reproduced the experimental observations. The numerical and experimental investigations show that the generation of the unilateral sidebands is attributed to the CFBG-induced spectral filtering effect. Our work provides an effective way to manage conventional solitons with spectral sidebands. (C) 2012 Optical Society of America
