Switchable single- and dual-wavelength erbium-doped fiber laser assisted by four-wave mixing with wide and continuous tunability

A widely tunable and stable erbium-doped fiber laser based on four-wave mixing effect in a highly nonlinear fiber is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. By adjusting reflected power from a dual-selective element, the ring laser is switchable between single- and dual-wavelength operations. The...
