Abstract

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a multiwavelength erbium‐doped fiber ring laser using a fiber Sagnac loop filter. The fiber Sagnac loop filter served as the wavelength selection component within the ring laser cavity. By carefully tuning the setting of the polarization controller (PC) to effectively change the state of polarization of the light, three, four, and five lasing wavelengths were obtained from the output port of the ring laser. The proposed multiwavelength ring laser has the unique advantages of simple structure, changeable wavelength spacing, tunable number of lasing lines, and low cost. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract A Sagnac interferometer has been used in the ring cavity to produce a multiwavelength fiber laser. The results show that an elliptical‐core erbium‐doped fiber can produce more stable lasing lines compared to a normal erbium‐doped fiber. The principle of operation is based on polarizatio

## Abstract In this letter, __L__‐band multiwavelength operation in an erbium‐doped fiber ring laser (EDFRL) is achieved by using a tunable Fabry–Perot etalon as the intracavity comb filter. It is found that, for a ring cavity, the gain spectrum can be controlled, and the flattened gain spectrum at
