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 polarization‐dependent gain phenomena in erbium‐doped fiber. The number of lasing lines and stability may be adjusted by using a polarization controller to control the polarization of the wave inside the cavity. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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-independe

## Abstract A Sagnac loop filter based on the birefringence of a photonic crystal fiber is used to demonstrate an all‐fiber multi‐wavelength Raman fiber laser. Stable lasing at multi‐wavelengths is achieved and the power distribution among different lasing wavelengths can be tuned by adjusting the
