Multi-wavelength mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser with photonic crystal fiber in figure-of-eight cavity

A simple passively multi-wavelength mode-locked EDFL is proposed and demonstrated based on figure-of-eight set up. A 50 m long PCF and 20 km long SMF are incorporated in the cavity as birefringent fiber. The EDFL generates a stable multi-wavelength laser with spacing of 0.47 nm and mode-locked pulse...
