Numerical Study on the Soliton Mode-Locking of the Er3+-Doped Fluoride Fiber Laser at ~3 μm with Nonlinear Polarization Rotation

Recent interest in the application of mid-infrared (mid-IR) lasers has made the generation of ~3 µm ultrafast pulses a hot topic. Recently, the generation of femtosecond-scale pulses in Er3+-doped fluoride fiber lasers has been realized by nonlinear polarization rotation (NPR). However, a...
