Abstract
In line fiber Mach–Zehnder inferometer (MZI) pulse compression was designed three different lengths of single mode-polarization maintaining fiber with (8, 16, 24) cm after splicing them between two single mode fibers (SMF-28e) with (23 and 13) cm and applying different weights on splicing region and the cross sectional area of SM-PM fiber, the designed performance of the in line fiber compressor system was studies in terms of compressor factor. Two minima pulse compression factor were obtained, one is 1.13 with FWHM 251.584 pm, centered wavelength 1547.394 nm, 52 cm interferometer length and 5 g was applied on the micro-cavity splicing region, and the second is equal 1.10 with FWHM 259.730 pm, centered wavelength 1547.120 pm and, 68 cm interferometer length and 10 g was applied on the cross sectional area of the second PMFs, in the case of single and cascaded interferometers, respectively. The input of the all interferometers was pulsed laser source with peak power 1.2297 mW, 286 pm spatial FWHM, 10 ns temporal FWHM, 3 kHz repetition rate and centered at 1546.7 nm.
