摘要：

We have developed a side-pumped passively mode-locked Yb-doped double-clad fiber laser emitting subpicosecond pulses at around 1.05 mum. Mode locking is achieved through a polarization additive-pulse mode-locking technique and compression is obtained with a grating pair inserted in the cavity. We have investigated the compression properties of this laser. High-energy pulses are emitted and different behaviors are observed, such as sideband generation, secant-like or Gaussian-like pulse emission.
