A stable noise-like pulse (NLP) in a figure-of-eight nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM) erbium-doped fiber (EDF) laser is proposed and demonstrated. The work experimentally investigated the effect of dispersion in the generation and evolution of the NLP by varying the length of single mode fiber (...
