摘要
Bridging multi-mode fibers and Mamyshev regenerators holds promise for pulse energy scaling in fiber lasers. However, initialization of a multi-mode Mamyshev oscillator remains a practical challenge. Here we report self-starting spatiotemporal mode-locking (STML) in a multi-mode Mamyshev oscillator without active assistance. The first initialized mode-locking is unstable, but stable STML can be attained by increasing the filter separation. Simulations verify the capability of reaching self-starting STML using Mamyshev regenerators and unveil the effect of filter separation on the self-starting ability. (c) 2022 Optica Publishing Group
