Abstract
Q-switched erbium fiber lasers are currently used for purposes of communications, distributed fiber-optical sensing, etc. There exist active and passive methods to enforce a laser to oscillate giant pulses. The passive methods are the most actively studied now. In this work, we report, for the first time to our knowledge, on a novel scheme of an erbium fiber laser passively Q-switched with a use of a Co2+:ZnSe crystal under CW pump.
