摘要：

In this paper a tunable single-longitudinal mode (SLM), short-wavelength band (S-band) fiber laser using a conventional erbium-doped fiber (EDF) with a length of 3 m and a step index erbium dopant profile as opposed to the commonly used depressed cladding erbium-doped fiber (DC-EDF) is proposed and demonstrated. The proposed SLM fiber laser has a tuning range of 1496 to 1507 nm in a ring configuration using two 0.15 m of EDF which acts as saturable absorbers (SAs). The highest peak power measured is about -0.6dBm at a wavelength range of 1502 to 1507 nm. The measured signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is approximately 74 dB for the same wavelength range. The line-width of the SLM output is measured to be 140 kHz.
