摘要：

We demonstrate an all-fiber laser capable of realising switchable spatial mode output, by utilising a few-mode fiber Bragg grating and random distributed feedback (RDFB). An offset splicing spot is used to assist the efficient exciting of higher order modes, and the laser output can be freely switched between the LP01 and LP11 modes by adjusting the polarisation controllers. The intensity distribution of the laser output beam profile, along with its spectral evolution and temporal characteristics has been investigated. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first spatial mode switchable RDFB fiber laser which may broaden the scope of the random fiber laser.
