A tunable multiwavelength fiber laser (MWFL) based on bidirectional semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) in conjunction with a Sagnac loop mirror (SLM) interferometer is proposed. The best multiwavelength spectrum from this setup produces 164 lasing lines within 3 dB uniformity. The main study is t...
