CONTINUOUSLY WAVELENGTH-TUNABLE SHORT PULSE FIBER RING LASER EMPLOYING A HIGH OUTPUT POWER MQW FABRY-PEROT LASER DIODE

摘要：

A simple continuously wavelength-tunable fiber ring laser pulse source is demonstrated. Such a source employs a gain-switched multiple quantum well Fabry-Perot laser diode in a self-seeding scheme and the output pulse wavelength can be tuned continuously via a tunable optical filter. The optical pulses generated exhibit a pulse width of 92ps at the frequency of 2.6GHz.Within a wide wavelength tuning range of 46nm, the side-mode suppression ratio and the average power of the output optical pulses obtained are higher than 50.1dB and 3.3dBm, respectively, and the pulse spectral stability can be maintained in the whole wavelength tuning range.
