Abstract
Mamyshev oscillators and gain-managed nonlinear (GMN) amplifiers have the capability to generate high-power sub-50 fs pulses, but their close relationship has not been systematically investigated. In this paper, we numerically study the influence of gain-managed nonlinearity on the laser evolution and output characteristics of the Mamyshev oscillator. The impact of the gain fibre length, as well as the central wavelength and bandwidth of spectral filters on GMN evolution in the laser are investigated. The results indicate that optimizing these cavity parameters can lead to the GMN evolution, which can improve the output peak power by 1.5–4 times in Mamyshev oscillators.
