Advanced distributed feedback lasers based on composite fiber heavily doped with erbium ions

Abstract: Specially designed composite heavily er 3+-doped fiber in combination with unique point-by-point inscription technology by femtosecond pulses at 1,026 nm enables formation of distributed-feedback (DFB) laser with ultra-short cavity length of 5.3 mm whose parameters are comparable and even better than those for conventional er 3+-doped fiber DFB lasers having much longer cavity. The composite fiber was fabricated by melting rare-earth doped phosphate glass in silica tube. The ultrashort DFB laser generates sing… Show more

“…3. As an active medium we used commercially available Fibercore I-25(980/125) Er-doped fiber and custom-made heavily-doped fibers (Er 1 wt.% [30], [31] and Er 3 wt.% [32]) fabricated by Fiber Optics Research Center (FORC, Moscow, Russia), whose main parameters are summarized in Table 1. The cavity was pumped by a 980-nm laser diode (LD) with maximal output power of 680 mW.…”

“…Distributed feedback (DFB) fiber lasers are known as a unique source of single-frequency lasing for a wide variety of applications from spectroscopy [1] to precision sensing [2], thanks to the high stability, low noise level (signal to noise ratio > 65 dB), and narrow linewidth (<1 kHz). The cavity of distributed feedback fiber lasers is usually based on a periodic structure such as pi-phase-shifted fiber Bragg grating (FBG) which is embedded into an active fiber, so that a stable single-frequency regime is provided [3]. In contrast, random distributed feedback (RDFB) fiber lasers usually utilize Rayleigh scattering on a natural or artificial random refractive index structures.…”

“…В частности, технология поточечной фс модификации позволила создать РОС-лазер рекордно короткой длины (5,3 мм) в композитном эрбиевом световоде [5], причем его характеристики не уступают характеристикам обычных волоконных РОС-лазеров с длиной резонатора на порядок больше, в частности, измеренная ширина линии составила единицы кГц при мощности 0,5 мВт. С помощью фс технологии в пассивном волокне длиной 5-10 см был сформирован искусственный рэлеевский отражательон имеет малые потери и в комбинации с эрбиевым РОС-лазером такой гибридный лазер с регулярной и случайной РОС позволяет на порядок уменьшить ширину линии одночастотной генерации (с ~1 до ~0,1 кГц) в телекоммуникационном диапазоне спектра (~1,55 мкм).…”
