摘要
By developing a three-level model, we propose and investigate the behaviour of a cw-pumped erbium-doped fiber resonator system. The system can work in the states of optical bistability, self-pulsation or cw by controlling the input pump, the gain and loss at both the pump wavelength and the lasing wavelength. The self-pulsation results from the interaction between the pump field and the lasing field through the erbium-doped fiber medium, and exists in a region just above the first laser threshold.
