New techniques for multiple wavelength fiber laser generation based on edfa and tdfa

Multiple wavelength fiber laser (MWFL) can be a potential source for microwave generation as the conventional microwave generator have several issues in generating high frequency. In order to be such source, the MWFL must have the following criterion; a great number of comb lines, a compact design,...

Photonics Multiple wavelength fiber laser (MWFL) can be a potential source for microwave generation as the conventional microwave generator have several issues in generating high frequency.
