Zusammenfassung:In this article, we report, to the best of our knowledge, the first observation of the reverse self-sweeping phenomenon in an all-polarization-maintaining bidirectional ytterbium-doped fiber laser. Conventional behaviors, including the dependence of sweeping range, sweeping rate and average pulse repetition rate on the pump power, can be observed in our fiber laser. Two couplers with ratio of 50/50 and 10/90 are respectively employed as the output coupler in fiber laser, which generates the reverse self-sweeping phenomenon for comparison.
