Abstract

The origin of self-pulsations in Er-doped distributed-feedback (DFB) fiber lasers is related to ion clustering at high erbium concentrations.¹ The clusters act as saturable absorbers with switching time much shorter than the population inversion recovery time and can eventually result in spiking behavior of the laser.
