Eight-Wavelength Selectable Single-Longitudinal- Mode Fiber Laser Using 1× 8 Arrayed Waveguide Grating and Passive Triple Subring Resonators

In this paper, we demonstrate a stable output single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) Erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) with eight selectable wavelengths. The EDFL achieves wavelength selection through a 1 × 8 arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) and generates SLM output using the passive triple subring...

description In this paper, we demonstrate a stable output single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) Erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) with eight selectable wavelengths. The EDFL achieves wavelength selection through a 1 × 8 arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) and generates SLM output using the passive triple subring resonator (PTSR) architecture. In the experimental measurements, we separately measured the wavelength, power, and optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) for all eight channels. The experimental results show a wavelength spacing of approximately 0.8 nm, with OSNRs around 60 dB and powers around 2.5 dBm for each channel. The power and OSNR for all eight wavelengths show very little variation. Finally, we measured that the laser outputs are all SLM, and the measured linewidths are all less than 2.5 kHz.
