Low threshold 2^nd-order random lasing of a fiber laser with a half-opened cavity

Abstract: In this paper, we reported the realization of 2nd-order random lasing in a half-opened fiber cavity, which is formed by a FBG with central wavelength at the 1st-order Raman Stokes wavelength and a single-mode fiber (SMF) performing as a random distributed feedback mirror. Using this proposed method, the threshold of 1st-order (2nd-order) random lasing is reduced to 0.7 (2.0) W, which is nearly 2 times lower than that observed in a completely-opened cavity.

“…Various aspects of RFL have been studied in recent years. RFL has demonstrated to be tunable [14], multi-wavelength [15][16][17][18], narrow bandwidth [19], cascaded operation to generate high order Stokes wave [20][21][22][23] and high output power [24,25].. However, up till now, there are still a lot of open questions regarding the physics of random lasing in fibers.…”

“…Up to date, a number of different schemes of random DFB fiber lasers were demonstrated [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] . Namely, random DFB fiber lasers can operate in different spectral bands 12,13 , emit higher order Stokes waves [12][13][14] , be tunable 22,23 and multiwavelength 15,19,21 .…”
