Multi-wavelength oscillating and transverse mode switching in an all few-mode fiber laser based on polarization manipulation
摘要: We have proved the polarization dependence of the fiber Bragg grating (FBG), and demonstrated an all few-mode fiber laser that can realize multi-wavelength oscillation and switchable transverse modes simultaneously based on the polarization dependence of FBG. In this fiber laser, single-, dual- and triple-wavelength oscillation can be realized by merely adjusting the polarization controller inside the cavity. Three output transverse modes including fundamental mode, second-order mode, and hybrid modes can be switched as the laser operates at three different single-wavelengths correspondingly. In addition, azimuthally and radially polarized beams can be easily generated. This all few-mode fiber laser scheme may play a more significant role in wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) systems, mode division multiplexed (MDM) systems, sensing, and so on.

100?GHz free spectral range-tunable multi-wavelength fiber laser using single–multi–single mode fiber interferometer
摘要: Six single–multi–single (SMS) mode fiber-based Mach–Zehnder Interferometers (MZI) with different spooling radii are demonstrated as spatial mode filtering elements for multi-wavelength laser generation. Free spectral range (FSR) tuning of the multi-wavelength output generated is realized by alternating between the six MZIs, which have different macro-bending losses. Additional FSR tuning is also realized by changing the spooling radius of the two-mode step index fiber section within the MZI setups from 80 mm to 30 mm, giving an FSR tuning range of 0.89–0.99 nm. All generated multi-wavelength outputs show high stability over a test period of 100 min. The proposed multi-wavelength lasers are highly suitable for various microwave photonics applications the field of such as microwave signal source generation and microwave photonic filtering.

Narrow no-gain competition linewidth dual-wavelength laser at 912?nm and 1064 nm
摘要: A narrow linewidth, no-gain competition, 912 nm quasi-three level and 1064 nm four-level dual-wavelength laser is presented for the first time. This system consists of an intra-cavity pumped Nd:YVO4 laser emitting at 1064 nm, using a 912 nm Nd:GdVO4 laser. A Fabry-Perot etalon is used to compress the linewidth located at the common parts of the 912 nm and 1064 nm laser resonators. When the etalon, with an angle of refraction of 15°, was introduced into the cavity, the narrow linewidth dual-wavelength laser was obtained. The corresponding minimum linewidths were 0.284 nm and 0.627 nm.

Dual-wavelength thulium/holmium-doped fiber laser generation in 2 <i>μ</i> m region with high side-mode suppression ratio
摘要: We demonstrate a dual-wavelength laser with emission in the 2 μm wavelength region using a thulium/holmium co-doped fiber and a non-adiabatic tapered fiber as a comb filter. The configuration employed a backward pumping scheme and dual-wavelength laser was generated at 2023.53 and 2032.82 nm. The side-mode suppression ratio (SMSR) is more than 44 dB with overall good stability performance. The proposed configuration presents a simple yet practical scheme of generating 2 μm dual-wavelength laser with good SMSR. This investigation may offer a more efficient yet eye safe dual-wavelength related applications for end users.

Construction of 879?nm direct intra-cavity pumped dual-wavelength laser operating at 912?nm and 1064?nm
摘要: A dual-wavelength continuous-wave laser with direct intra-cavity pumping using a 879 nm laser diode that utilizes Nd:GdVO4 and Nd:YVO4 crystals, is presented. To the best of our knowledge, this system completely eliminates the gain competition between the 912 nm and 1064 nm transitions for the first time. A theoretical model is introduced to describe this intra-cavity pumped dual-wavelength laser. The lasing threshold of the 912 nm Nd:GdVO4 laser is presented by considering the ground-state reabsorption loss effect. A total output power of 1.33 W at dual-wavelength operation with an absorbed pump power of 7.91 W is experimentally achieved. The individual output power for the 912 nm and 1064 nm emissions were 0.43 W and 0.9 W, respectively. Both wavelengths operate in TEM00 mode with a total slope efficiency > 20%.

Resonant electro-optic frequency comb
摘要: High-speed optical telecommunication is enabled by wavelength-division multiplexing, whereby hundreds of individually stabilized lasers encode information within a single-mode optical fibre. Higher bandwidths require higher total optical power, but the power sent into the fibre is limited by optical nonlinearities within the fibre, and energy consumption by the light sources starts to become a substantial cost factor. Optical frequency combs have been suggested to remedy this problem by generating numerous discrete, equidistant laser lines within a monolithic device; however, at present their stability and coherence allow them to operate only within small parameter ranges. Here we show that a broadband frequency comb realized through the electro-optic effect within a high-quality whispering-gallery-mode resonator can operate at low microwave and optical powers. Unlike the usual third-order Kerr nonlinear optical frequency combs, our combs rely on the second-order nonlinear effect, which is much more efficient. Our result uses a fixed microwave signal that is mixed with an optical-pump signal to generate a coherent frequency comb with a precisely determined carrier separation. The resonant enhancement enables us to work with microwave powers that are three orders of magnitude lower than those in commercially available devices. We emphasize the practical relevance of our results to high rates of data communication. To circumvent the limitations imposed by nonlinear effects in optical communication fibres, one has to solve two problems: to provide a compact and fully integrated, yet high-quality and coherent, frequency comb generator; and to calculate nonlinear signal propagation in real time. We report a solution to the first problem.

Widely Wavelength-tunable Mode-locked Fiber Laser Based on a 45° Tilted Fiber Grating and Polarization Maintaining Fiber
摘要: We present a passively mode-locked Erbium-doped fiber laser with tunable parameters including central wavelength, 3dB bandwidth and pulse duration. The mode-locking mechanism of the laser is realized by using single-walled carbon nanotubes polyvinyl alcohol (SWCNTs-PVA) composite film as saturable absorber. The tunable operation is implemented via a fiber birefringence filter consisting of a polarization maintaining (PM) fiber and a Brewster fiber grating. The laser achieves a maximum spectral tuning range of 36 nm with 8 cm PM fiber. The maximum spectral width variation of 5.19 nm is acquired when the PM fiber is 12 cm. Simultaneously, the spectral widths of pulses at different central wavelengths are also adjustable. Furthermore, the total cavity length is 8.28 m, which is the shortest cavity length to obtain such wide tuning range in an Erbium-doped fiber laser based on SWCNTs.

Spatial-mode switchable, multi-wavelength all-fiber erbium-doped fiber (EDF) laser based on low modal crosstalk mode multiplexer/demultiplexer (MUX/DEMUX)
摘要: We experimentally demonstrate an all-fiber erbium-doped fiber ring laser based on a Sagnac interferometer with a low modal crosstalk mode multiplexer/demultiplexer (MUX/DEMUX). Three linearly polarized (LP) modes are generated by mode MUX/DEMUX, which consists of cascaded mode-selective couplers. The proposed fiber laser can simultaneously achieve spatial-mode switching and multi-wavelength tuning. In the experiment, single-, dual-, and triple-wavelength lasing outputs for LP01, LP11, LP21 and hybrid modes are obtained. The stabilities for LP01, LP11, LP21 and hybrid modes are investigated in more than 20 min, 16 min, 12 min and 16 min, respectively. Moreover, the mode intensity profiles, the OSNRs of the lasing output and the slope efficiencies are also measured.

Fast and simple interrogation of extrinsic Fabry–Perot interferometer sensor based on dual-wavelength intensity ratio
摘要: A fast and simple demodulation method for the variation of Fabry-Perot (FP) cavity length is proposed and demonstrated. Taking advantages of differentially detecting optical power intensities of dual-wavelength, a reliable linear correlation between the variation of FP cavity length and differential intensity ratio of dual-wavelength can be obtained. Besides, an extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (EFPI) sensor with a length of 196.8 um was used to demonstrate performance of the method, and the time for each experimental operation is within 100 ms by the demodulation method and an integrable tunable laser assembly (ITLA). The demodulation resolution of 0.726 nm was achieved for the change of cavity length in a strain sensing experiment. By selecting two wavelengths at different positions in the system, the linear ranges of FP cavity length variation are 180 nm, 150 nm, and 130 nm responding to the sensitivities of -0.01099 nm-1, -0.01485 nm-1, and -0.02253 nm-1, respectively. It shows a high flexibility between the linear range and the sensitivity. Consequently, the different requirements of the EFPI sensor system can be easily fulfilled through appropriate selections of two different wavelengths. Moreover, the advantages of simplicity, fast speed, low cost can be fully revealed in the demodulation of large-scale production EFPI sensors.
