We demonstrate for the first time, to our knowledge, an all-polarization-maintaining double-clad neodymium fiber laser operating in the dissipative soliton resonance (DSR) regime where stable mode-locking is achieved using a nonlinear amplifying loop mirror (NALM) with large normal dispersion in a figure-8 cavity design. The laser thereby generates square-shaped nanosecond pulses whose duration linearly scales with pump power from 0.5 up to 6 ns, with a maximum energy of 20 nJ. In addition, output pulses feature a remarkably narrow bandwidth of 60 pm along with a signal-to-noise ratio higher than 80 dB. This study then paves the way toward using such DSR-based sources for efficient frequency doubling in the blue spectral range. (C) 2019 Optical Society of America
