摘要：
A tunable Raman laser in the hollow bottle-like microresonator is demonstrated. By controlling the pump laser frequency, we have demonstrated continuous Raman laser frequency tuning. We also have studied the interesting transient mode evolution with Raman gain by sweeping the pump and probe laser, and verified the thermal tuning mechanism by theoretical simulations. By mechanically stretching the resonator, we have achieved the large range frequency tuning of the Raman laser, with the tuning range of 132 GHz with the resolution about 85 MHz. The demonstrated tunable Raman laser can be used as a source for future optical applications. (C) 2017 Optical Society of America
