▎ 摘  要

This paper presents the study on power scaling of an all-polarization maintaining (PM) fiber mode-locked laser using the multilayer chemical vapor deposition graphene/poly(methyl methacrylate) composite as a saturable absorber by changing the coupling ratio of the laser output coupler. Pulses with the duration of 148 fs were generated using 10% output coupler, which are the shortest pulses obtained from mode-locked erbium doped fiber laser working in anomalous dispersion regime, additionally the highest average output power of 15.66 mW was achieved by applying 70% output coupler. All-PM fiber resonator configuration provides self-start and stable operation. To our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive study of power scaling of erbium doped fiber laser with graphene saturable absorber. Conducted experimental-work is in very good agreement with numerical simulations.
