All-fiber, ultra-wideband tunable laser at 2 μm

Opt Lett. 2013 Nov 15;38(22):4739-42. doi: 10.1364/OL.38.004739.

Abstract

We report a direct diode-pumped all-fiber tunable laser source at 2 μm with a tuning range of more than 250 nm. A 3 dB power flatness of 200 nm with a maximum output power of 30 mW at 1930 nm was achieved. The laser has a high optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) of more than 40 dB across the whole tuning range.
