Problems solved by technology

There are also some experimental research results published on dual-wavelength ultrashort pulse polarization-maintaining fiber laser generation, but most of them use active mode-locking technology or the interval between the two laser wavelengths is very small, so the application range is limited, or the two wavelengths cannot be controlled separately, making it difficult to achieve Wavelength tuning and double pulse synchronization for two different wavelengths
