Multiwavelength Raman fiber ring laser with the spectrum profile broadened by parametric four wave mixing in highly nonlinear dispersion-shifted fibers
A broadband multiwavelength Raman fiber ring laser (RFRL) covering the whole C-band at room temperature are presented. The effect of the intracavity highly nonlinear dispersion-shifted fiber on broadening and flattening the output spectrum envelope is discussed and experimentally demonstrated. More than 45-dB extinction-ratio multiwavelength output from 1527.76 to 1566.86 nm with 100-GHz channel spacing and 2.1-dB power ripple has been achieved by carefully controlling the individual powers of three pump lasers.
