Reduction of gain depletion and saturation on a Brillouin–erbium fiber laser utilizing a Brillouin pump preamplification technique

This paper presents the characteristics of a multiwavelength L-band Brillouin–erbium comb fiber laser with a preamplified Brillouin pump (BP) power technique at low pumping powers. The issue of erbium-doped fiber gain depletion and Brillouin gain saturation are resolved by the proposed structure. Fo...
