Erbium‐doped fiber devices have been extraordinarily successful due to their broad optical
gain around 1.5–1.6 µm. Er‐doped fiber amplifiers enable efficient, stable amplification of …

Photonics for angular rate sensing is a well-established research field having very important
industrial applications, especially in the field of strapdown inertial navigation. Recent …

Rare-Earth-Doped Fiber Lasers and Amplifiers, Second Edition discusses the essential
principles, operating characteristics, and current technology of the main fiber laser and …

This review paper on erbium-doped fibre laser (EDFL) covers a broad range of designs and

We describe the characterization of a temperature sensor based on the infrared-to-visible
frequency upconversion process excited in a sample of Er/sup 3+/-doped fluoroindate glass …

Data are presented on Er/sup 3+/-doped superfluorescent fiber sources showing the
dependence of output characteristics on pump wavelength and power, fiber length, fiber …

We demonstrate a high-power narrowband all-fiber superfluorescent fiber source employing
three-stages master oscillator power-amplifier chain. Narrowband seed light is selected from …

The superfluorescent fiber source (SFS) has the unique features of broadband emission, low
coherence, high brightness, and high temporal stability, thereby being applicable to a wide …

We report on a detailed study of an amplified spontaneous emission source operated in a
pulsed regime with particular attention paid to the influence of high-intensity chaotic …

Thanks to the unique properties such as spatially coherent, broadband emission spectrum,
and high temporal stability, superfluorescent fiber source (SFS) has shown tremendous …
