| description | We demonstrate a thulium-doped fiber ring laser (TDFRL) integrated with an amplifier, which has a watt-level single-frequency output at 2 <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\mu\text{m}$</tex-math></inline-formula> with a 120-nm wavelength tunability. The TDFRL is constructed based on a hybrid ring-linear resonator configuration. An unpumped TDF is incorporated as a self-constructed saturable absorption grating. A blazed grating aligned in a Littrow configuration is employed for broadband wavelength-selective feedback. The characteristics of the laser output mode are analyzed by using an all-fiber scanning ring resonator. |
