    Abstract: A hybrid type passively and actively mode-locked laser scheme is disclosed, in which not only the capability of producing ultra-short optical pulses by the conventional passively mode-locked optical fiber laser scheme is utilized, but also the repetition rate variation capability and the optical pulse synchronization capability of the conventional actively mode-locked laser scheme are utilized. Consequently, all the advantages of the two conventional laser schemes are obtained in the present invention. Specifically, two loops are coupled together, and one of the two loops consists of a non-linear amplifying loop of the existing passively mode-locked scheme, while the other loop includes an optical modulator and an optical gain medium for the loop to perform the function of an actively mode-locked scheme. Further the other loop includes a time delay line so as to adjust the laser oscillation repetition rate. The ultra-short optical pulses of the present invention will be applied to high speed time division multiplexed optical communication system, high speed optical signal processors, and ultrafast optical phenomenon studies.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a tunable optical filtering system using fiber-optic polarimetric interferometer. The tunable optical filtering system using fiber-optic polarimetric interferometer in accordance with the present invention comprises a stabilization light source, a first polarization beam splitter, a first optical fiber node, a number of polarization maintaining optical fibers, a phase modulator, a stabilization electronics, a second optical fiber node, a second polarization beam splitter, and two wavelength division optical multiplexers. The stabilization light source supplies stabilization light. The first polarization beam splitter polarizes the stabilization light and the input light to be filtered and generates polarized light. The first optical fiber node connects the output of the first polarization beam splitter with polarization maintaining fibers with the angle of 45 degree between their birefringent axes and splits the polarized light. The number of polarization maintaining optical fibers carries the split light by the first optical fiber node. The phase modulator maintains phase difference between two birefringent axes of the polarization maintaining fibers. The stabilization electronics supply feedback signal to the phase modulator. The second optical fiber node connects the polarization maintaining fibers with the input of second polarization beam splitter with the angle of 45 degree between their birefringent axes, receives split light by said first optical fiber node, and generates interference signals. The second polarization beam splitter divides the interference signals into output signals by polarization axes. The wavelength division optical multiplexers divide the output signals into signals for the stabilization electronics and filtered signals by wavelengths.
