    Figures & Tables(7)
    Schematic of the proposed fiber laser and detection devices.
    Reflection spectrum of the four-mode FBG with hybrid mode injection.
    (a) Autocorrelation trace of single pulse and (b) RF spectrum of the mode locking laser.
    Pulse train of the passively mode-locked laser in (a) large time range and (b) short time range.
    Optical spectrum of the mode-locked laser (blue solid line), CW operation (red solid line), and the four mode reflection (black dashed line).
    Intensity distribution of the (a) RPB output; (b)–(e) show the intensity distributions of the output beam after passing through a linear polarizer. Arrow indicates the orientation of the linear polarizer.
    Function fitting of the output beam intensity distribution. Black circles represents the measured intensity, red line represents the function fitting.
