Abstract
Recent progress in laser diodes with an ion-implanted fast saturable absorber resulted in generation of ultrashort optical pulses both in the gain-switching and in the passive mode-locking regimes.1-3 Normally, an implanted laser generates low intensity non-transform-limited pulses or pulse trains. Application of a fiber amplifier to increase the signal intensity and to improve the pulse quality is a promising way of obtaining soliton-like pulses.
