Successful generation of ultrashort pulses in the spectral region 920 nm using Nd-doped fibers requires effectively suppressing dominant 1064 four-level transition. Utilizing a hybrid design incorporating W-shaped double-clad fiber and single-clad together with filtering out parasitic 1.06 µm beam, we developed an oscillator capable delivering at central wavelength 929 nm. Here, transferred crucial components technology from well-developed Yb-doped systems to build all-polarization-maintaining laser oscillator. The pulsed operation is obtained through passive mode-locking via nonlinear amplifying loop mirror based on 3x3 coupler. self-starting system has figure-of-8 all-normal-dispersion cavity operates dissipative soliton regime. oscillator, generating energy exceeding 1 nJ, delivers chirped 14.3 ps pulses, which can be compressed 313 fs.
