Abstract: | A simple configuration to perform wavelength switching in an actively mode-locked fiber ring laser is demonstrated. A Fabry-Perot laser diode was used as a modulator and a HiBi fiber loop mirror was used as a periodic multichannel wavelength filter in the cavity. By setting the channel spacing of nm can be achieved by tuning the fiber loop mirror filter. In the wavelength-switched process, the modulation frequency was not required to be changed |
