摘要：

The authors describe the operation of an actively modelocked Er fibre laser incorporating a chirped in-fibre Bragg reflection grating as one end mirror to the cavity, acting as a lumped, highly dispersive element. In one orientation the grating shifted the cavity into the normal dispersion regime, and pulses of similar to 25ps duration were produced. In the opposite orientation, the cavity dispersion was anomalous and similar to 8ps pulses were produced with characteristics typical of solitons propagating in a periodically perturbed system.
