Abstract

We demonstrate an ultra-long cavity all-fiber Erbium-doped fiber laser that is passively mode-locked by nonlinear polarization rotation. The length of the resonant cavity amounts to 4.046 km, which is achieved by incorporating a 4 km single mode fiber. The laser generates stable mode-locked pulses with a 50.90 kHz fundamental repetition rate. The maximum average power of output pulses is 2.73 mW, which corresponds to per-pulse energy of 53.63 nJ.
