Abstract

By using a broadband fiber mirror (BFM), a wavelength tunable erbium‐doped fiber laser (TEDFL) is demonstrated composed with tunable fiber Bragg grating (TFBG). The BFM acts as a broadband reflector both for the lasing signal and pump source. At pumping power of 100 mW, stable laser output power of 21.35 dBm is obtained at a low threshold pumping power of 4.7 mW. A side mode suppression ratio (SMSR) of 57.9 dB and 16 nm wavelength scan range are demonstrated using a single TFBG. The tunable fiber laser may be a good candidate for vast applications in optical network technologies. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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
