碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 光電工程系所 === 96 === Asynchronous mode-locked fiber soliton lasers have some interesting properties including slow periodic variation of the pulse parameters and excellent low noise performance. They may find applications in high speed optical communication, ultrafast optical processing, and other scientific researches. The study of the thesis is focused on how to characterize the slow periodic variation of the pulse timing position and the pulse center frequency by directly analyzing the RF spectra of the laser output pulse train. The measured results are compared with theoretical results to enhance our understanding on the laser dynamics of asynchronous mode locked fiber soliton lasers. This will also help to develop the applications of this new laser source.
