    Schematic of the Mamyshev fiber oscillator. PBS, polarizing beam splitter; HWP, half-wave plate; QWP, quarter-wave plate; ISO, free space isolator; DDL, dispersion delay line (a grating pair); PCF, photonic crystal fiber.
    (a) Pulse duration and spectral BW evolution in the laser cavity. (b) Misfit parameter M in the cavity. (c) Pulse before and after the DDL. (d) Output spectrum. (e) Output pulse. (f) Numerically dechirped pulse by a 300 lines/mm grating pair.
    Experimental results. (a) Output spectrum from the PBS1. (b) Output spectrum. (c) Dechirped autocorrelation. (d) Calculated Fourier transform limited pulse profile. (e) Output spectrum stability over an 8 h window.
    Octave spanning simulation results. (a) Output spectrum. (b) A 300 lines/mm grating pair dechirped pulse and its Fourier transform limited pulse.
