Generation of efficient 20 GHz optical combs in a Brillouin-erbium fiber laser

A tunable multiwavelength Brillouin-erbium fiber laser is experimentally demonstrated with a double-Brillouin-frequency spacing. This double-frequency shifter is constructed by incorporating a four-port circulator to isolate and circulate the odd-Stokes signals through the 10?km long non-zero disper...
