摘要
The unique combination of two gain media in brillouin/erbium fiber lasers results in distinctive properties of such sources, This paper describes in detail the output and efficiency properties of brillouin/erbium fiber lasers, from experimental results and a theoretical model. Single longitudinal mode output with linewidth <10 kHz was measured, with a 4-nm tuning range with the brillouin pump wavelength, Frequency pulling associated with the brillouin gain was investigated and observed to increase linearly with the brillouin pump power.
