Single-Longitudinal-Mode Linear-Cavity Fiber Laser Using Multiple Subring -Cavities

[[abstract]]A single-longitudinal-mode selection is realized in a linear-cavity fiber laser construction using a loop-back optical circulator and a partial reflectance fiber Bragg grating as the cavity ends. At 1551 nm wave-length, the measured signal-to-noise-ratio is 56 dB and with a line width less than 1 MHz obtained using multiple subring cavities as mode filters. The pumping efficiency is 10% improved by recycling the residual pump power to gain medium.[[fileno]]2030111010041[[department]]電機工程學
