Closely spaced dual-wavelength fiber laser using an ultra narrow bandwidth optical filter for low radio frequency generation

A dual-wavelength (DW) fiber laser with a closely spaced single longitudinal mode (SLM) output is proposed and demonstrated. The proposed fiber laser utilizes a conventional fiber Bragg grating with a center wavelength of about 1546.8 nm in conjunction with an ultranarrow bandwidth tunable optical...
