Raman-scattering-assistant large energy dissipative soliton and multicolor coherent noise-like pulse complex in an Yb-doped fiber laser

In this Letter, we have demonstrated the generation of dissipative solitons (DSs) or multi-wavelength noise-like pulses (NLPs) directly from a common linear Yb-doped fiber laser in the presence of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS). For the DSs, the pulse energy of the solitons with a pulse width of 74.2 ps reaches 21.2 nJ. For the NLPs, the generation of the main NLP (1032 nm) together with the first-order Raman NLP (1080 nm) is realized. The narrow peak of the double-scale autocorrelation trace is characterized by quasi-periodic beat pulses with a pulse beating of 40.6 fs and a pulse separation of 79 fs, indicating that the generated solitons at dual wavelengths are mutually coherent. Furthermore, a three-color stable NLP complex with a broader spectrum is also obtained. The results contribute to an in-depth understanding of nonlinear dynamics and ultrafast physics.
