Abstract
100 fs pulses are generated in passively mode‐locked erbium fiber lasers with small negative group‐velocity dispersion. The pulses are obtained at a pump power significantly higher than the mode‐locking threshold. An optimization of fiber lengths leads to the elimination of pedestal formation and the generation of stable pulse trains with high contrast ratios.Keywords
