Abstract
We investigated of the output characteristics of a spectrally filtered stretched-pulse thulium fiber laser in dependence of cavity dispersion and pump power. The experimental results together with corresponding theoretical modeling allow for a deeper insight into the pulse shaping mechanisms.
