Abstract Random Lasers (RLs) and Random Fiber Lasers (RFLs) have been the subject of
intense research since their first experimental demonstration in 1994 and 2007, respectively …

For photonic devices, structural disorder and light scattering have long been considered
annoying and detrimental features that were best avoided or minimized. This review shows …

The interest in random fiber lasers (RFLs), first demonstrated one decade ago, is still
growing and their basic characteristics have been studied by several authors. RFLs are …

Light sources with high radiance are increasingly required for full-field real-time imaging.
Conventional lasing sources are poorly suited for such imaging due to their high spatial or …

The wavelength tunability of conventional fiber lasers are limited by the bandwidth of gain
spectrum and the tunability of feedback mechanism. Here a fiber laser which is continuously …

An up to 8th order cascaded Raman random fiber laser with high spectral purity is achieved
with the pumping of a narrow linewidth amplified spontaneous emission source. The …

High-order random Raman fiber lasers are investigated for generating high-power widely
wavelength-tunable light sources. By cascaded random Raman lasing and adjusting pump …

In this work, high-power tandem-pumped random fiber lasers are investigated in detail. A 6.5
W random fiber laser seed centered at 1070 nm with a half-open cavity structure was built …

Narrow-linewidth multi-wavelength fiber lasers are of significant interests for fiber-optic
sensors, spectroscopy, optical communications, and microwave generation. A novel narrow …

The random distributed-feedback Raman fiber laser (RRFL) is a new approach to obtain a
high-power laser. In this Letter, we report a RRFL with quasi-kilowatt output power for the …
