摘要：

In this work, we demonstrate a wide-spectrum multi-wavelength fiber laser generated by Brillouin-comb assisted four-wave mixing (FWM). The mechanism of the laser is based on the combination of stimulated Brillouin scattering in cavity and multiple FWM process outside cavity. The experiment results demonstrate that Brillouin-comb assisting is an effective method to improve the FWM process and increase the line number. More than 110 lines are achieved in 10 nm spectral range with the wavelength spacing of similar to 0.09 nm. The multi-wavelength fiber laser exhibits good stability on both the operating wavelengths and output power. The tunability of this multi-wavelength fiber laser is improved significantly by inserting a tunable filter in the cavity. The total line number is kept more than 110 in the whole tunable range of 30 nm from 1540 to 1570 nm.
