Abstract: A laser device with a ring laser resonator includes a polarization maintaining (PM) fiber, a first quarter waveplate, and an optical isolator. The PM fiber has a light input end and a light output end and is configured to guide a first linearly polarized light with a first phase along a fast axis of the PM fiber from the light input end and a second linearly polarized light with a second phase along a slow axis of the PM fiber from the input end. The first quarter waveplate is disposed at the light output end of the PM fiber and configured to convert the first and the second linearly polarized lights into left-handed and right-handed (or right-handed and left-handed) circularly polarized lights, respectively. The optical isolator is configured to unidirectionally transmit a laser pulse in the ring laser resonator.

Abstract: A mode-locked fiber laser device is provided in the disclosure. The mode-locked fiber laser device includes a non-linear loop mirror, an optical splitter and a uni-directional loop. The uni-directional loop includes a polarization beam splitter and a Faraday rotator. The uni-directional loop is coupled to the non-linear loop mirror by the optical splitter to form a figure-8 optical path. A first output laser pulse output by the optical splitter is propagated to the polarization beam splitter. After being rotated 45 degrees by a Faraday rotator, the first output laser pulse is propagated back to the non-linear loop mirror to form a laser resonator. A second output laser pulse output by the optical splitter is propagated to the Faraday rotator to rotate the second output laser pulse 45 degrees, and the polarization beam splitter reflects the second output laser pulse to the outside of the mode-locked fiber laser device.
