Abstract:We propose and demonstrate experimentally a single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) fiber double-ring laser using an Erbium-doped waveguide amplifier (EDWA), polarization controller (PC), and a fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter (FFP-TF) into the ring cavity. In addition, the output power, side-mode suppression ratio (SMSR), and the stabilities of power and wavelength of the laser also are investigated. Output wavelengths of the proposed fiber laser in an operating range of 1530 to 1560 nm

As a type of optical measuring apparatus, the charge-coupled diode (CCD) camera provides the capability of increasing the speed of measurement by inspecting an area with only one shot. However, the CCD camera's high-variation range of reflectivity presents an exceptional challenge for the optical measurement established on the surface. We present a method that could enable one to acquire an image with a highdynamic range in one shot without any reduction in spatial resolution. Because of the sufficient signal-to-noise ratio, the method presented could perform the robustness of the phase-retrieving algorithm, and the surface topography could be measured more accurately.
