    All-fiber Yb-doped laser mode-locked by nanotubes
    (IEEE, 2013) Zhang, Zewang; Popa, D.; Sun, Z.; Hasan, T.; Ferrari, A.C.; İlday, F. Ömer
    Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and graphene have emerged as promising saturable absorbers (SAs), due to their broad operation bandwidth and fast recovery times [1-3]. However, Yb-doped fiber lasers mode-locked using CNT and graphene SAs have generated relatively long pulses. All-fiber cavity designs are highly favored for their environmental robustness. Here, we demonstrate an all-fiber Yb-doped laser based on a SWNT saturable absorber, which allows generation of 8.7 ps-long pulses, externally compressed to 118 fs. To the best of our knowledge, these are the shortest pulses obtained with SWNT SAs from a Yb-doped fiber laser. © 2013 IEEE.

    All-normal-dispersion fiber lasers for frequency metrology
    (Optical Society of America, 2011) Şenel, Çağrı; İlday, F. Ömer; Kara, O.; Birlikseven, C.; Erdoǧan, C.; Hamid, R.
    Development of an all-normal-dispersion Yb-doped fiber laser-based frequency comb is reported. Repetition-frequency stabilization to the cesium standard, amplitude and phase noise measurements indicate low-noise performance. ©2011 Optical Society of America.
