We demonstrate low-frequency active mode locking of an erbium-doped all-fiber ring laser. As the mode locker, we used anewin-fiber bandpass acousto-optic modulator showing74%25modulation depth, 3.7dBpower insertion losses, 4.5 nm of optical bandwidth, and 20 dB of nonresonant light suppression. The laser generates 330 ps mode-locked pulses over a 10 ns pedestal, at a 1.538 MHz frequency, with 130 mW of pump power. © 2013 Optical Society of America.
