Abstract
- • A five wavelength-switchable single-longitudinal-mode erbium-doped fiber laser was proposed. • A cascaded PS-FBG was designed and analyzed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that the PS-FBG is used as a multi-channel filter to realize stable multiple SLM single-wavelength outputs. • Five single-wavelength switchable SLM outputs were generated in stable condition over 60 min. • The minimum linewidth at an integration time of 0.001 s was 1.3102 kHz. Wavelength-switchable fiber lasers play an important role in optical fiber communication systems. Although phase-shifted fiber Bragg grating (PS-FBG) has a narrow 3 dB bandwidth, it has rarely been reported as a multi-channel optical filter. Therefore, a five wavelength-switchable single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) was implemented and analyzed, where the cascaded PS-FBG with a 3 dB bandwidth of each channel narrower than 0.024 nm was used as a five-channel filter. The design, fabrication, and characterization of cascaded PS-FBG were implemented and analyzed in detail. By tuning the micro-displacement platform, five-single wavelength switchable SLM outputs with a high optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) were generated and the outputs were monitored over 60 min. The measured maximum wavelength drift and the peak power fluctuation were 0.02 nm and 1.73 dB. The relaxation oscillation peaks were lower than −100 dB/Hz and the minimum linewidth at an integration time of 0.001 s was 1.3102 kHz. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that the PS-FBG is used as a multi-channel filter to realize multiple SLM single-wavelength outputs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
