Stable mode-locked rectangular pulses are obtained by using the nonlinear amplifying loop mirror(NALM) technique. A long spool of high-nonlinearity fiber(HNLF) and a segment of SMF-28 fiber are used to enhance the nonlinearity of the NALM loop and to obtain a large all-anomalous regime. Output power and pulse energy are further boosted by using a three-stage master oscillator power amplifier(MOPA) system. At the maximum pump power, average output power of up to 104.3 W with record pulse energy of 0.33 mJ is achieved with a 2 μm DSR-based MOPA system.展开更多
