Abstract
This invention discloses a method to control laser dynamics in a gain-switched fiber laser so as to generate stable, clean pulses in an all-fiber format. The gain-switched fiber laser is suitable as a standalone laser source, and as a pump source for harmonic generation and an optical-parametric-oscillator.
