Wavelength switchable and stable single-longitudinal-mode erbium-doped fiber laser based on Mach–Zehnder interferometer and tunable filter

An erbium-doped fiber laser with all-fiber Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) and tunable filter was proposed and experimentally demonstrated. In the designed fiber laser, 6 m C-band erbium-doped fiber was selected as a gain medium; the MZI comprised two waist-enlarged fiber bitapers. In the experime...
