✦ Synopsis

Lasers made of regular (i.e., non-polarization-maintaining) rare earth doped single-mode fibers have birefringence which is randomly distributed along the length of the gain medium. This property and its consequences are examined in detail, together with applications to tunable lasers, as well as to lasers capable of simultaneously lasing in a number of discrete spectral lines.

Yb-doped cladding-pumped fiber laser with linearly-polarized output emission was realized. To obtain linear-polarization operation we have applied Bragg grating written in the fiber with high birefringence as the input reflector. The polarization extinction ratio was of 17 dB.
