Abstract

A discretely tunable Er‐doped fiber‐ring laser using a fiber Mach‐Zehnder interferometer (MZI) and a tunable fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is proposed. In this scheme, the combination of MZI and FBG acts as a discrete wavelength selector. Analysis of its transmission function shows that discrete wavelength tuning can be realized, and experiments demonstrate 64 single‐mode outputs with a mode spacing of 181.7 pm, and the output power is quite stable in the whole tuning range. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract A continuously tunable incoherent microwave photonic filter employing a tunable Mach‐Zehnder interferometer (MZI) as the slicing filter is studied. By incorporating the optical variable delay line (OVDL), the frequency spacing of the MZI can be tuned continuously, which in turn makes th

## Abstract A Fabry‐Perot filter is realized by inscribing two identical 1 mm uniform Bragg gratings separated by 7.7 mm space in the hydrogen‐loaded photosensitive optical fiber. It is then incorporated with a tunable chirped fiber Bragg grating into a fiber ring cavity. Fourteen single‐wavelength

## Abstract We proposed and demonstrated a room‐temperature multiwavelength Yb‐doped fiber ring laser with high stability based on a Mach‐Zehnder interferometer by exploiting spatial hole burning and polarization hole burning effects, from which stable eight lasing wavelengths is obtained. The numb
