✦ Synopsis


A low-threshold, single-frequency fiber laser was achieved without feedback control. This laser was a narrow linewidth fiber ring laser operating in the 1.55-Pm regime and pumped by 1.48-Pm InGaAsP laser diodes. Mode-hopping instabilities and multiwavelength oscillation due to spatial and polarization hole burning were eliminated by the use of an ultra-narrowband fiber Bragg grating and a polarization-dependent isolator. The laser exhibited stable single-frequency operation at all pump powers. The maximum output power was 1 mW, and the linewidth was less than 20 kHz.

The relative intensity (RIN) and optical frequency (ν rms ) noise of Er-doped fiber Bragg grating lasers are investigated theoretically and experimentally. For a 1480-nm pumped fiber distributed feedback (DFB) laser with 170-µW output power we observe a typical RIN floor of -118 dB Hz/ √ Hz for freq

A short wavelength band erbium-doped fiber laser (S-band EDFL) is demonstrated utilizing a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) in unidirectional ring configuration. The amplification in S-band is achieved using an erbium-doped fiber with depressed cladding, which suppressed gains at longer wavelength. The las

## Abstract A simple switchable dual‐wavelength Er‐doped fiber‐ring laser using a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) written in high‐birefringence (HiBi) fibers is proposed. Due to the two‐peak reflections with orthogonal polarizations of the FBG, the polarization hole‐burning effect in the cavity is greatl
