✦ Synopsis

In this letter, we propose a novel multiwavelength
fiber laser based on fiber loop mirror formed by a
high-birefringence fiber, a polarisation controller, and a 3 dB
directional coupler. By setting the polarisation controller as
half-wave-plate, the fiber loop mirror acts as a
polarisation-independent wavelength filter; Erbium-doped fiber
(EDF) cooling by liquid nitrogen acts as gain medium. The
wavelength spacing between the adjacent modes of the laser can be
varied accurately by adjusting the length of the
High-Birefringence (HiBi) fiber.

We propose and demonstrate a passively mode-locked Erbium-doped fiber laser based on symmetrical nonlinear optical loop mirror. The nonlinear optical loop mirror with intensity-depended transmission can act as an equivalent saturable absorber, which results in passively mode-locking of fiber laser.
