Long dynamic population gratings (DPGs) formed in rare-earth-doped fibers have unique
spectral characteristics compared to other types of fiber gratings, making them suitable for …

Self-sweeping of laser wavelength corresponding to holmium emission near 2100 nm is
reported. The sweeping occurred in~ 4 nm interval with rate~ 0.7 nm/s from longer towards …

We experimentally demonstrate a linearly polarized Tm-doped fiber laser with sweeping
range up to 26 nm in the region of 1.92 μm. The main feature of the laser is generation of …

We report on transition from single longitudinal mode operation to regular mode-hopping
dynamics in Erbium-doped ring fiber laser with a saturable absorber. The laser can be …

Self-swept erbium fiber laser emitting around 1.56 μm is reported in detail. Both sweep
directions were registered: pointing toward longer and shorter wavelengths, redshift and …

Generation of regular pulses of linearly polarized radiation with periodic self-induced laser
line sweeping by~ 10 nm near central wavelength of~ 1460 nm has been demonstrated for …

Dynamic population inversion gratings induced in an active medium by counter-propagating
optical fields may have a reverse effect on writing laser radiation via feedback they provide …

Continuous wave self-sweeping operation is demonstrated in a classical ring cavity
configuration of Yb-doped fiber laser with a saturable absorber, which is usually used to …

We report on reflectivity of transient Bragg gratings created in the active medium of a fiber
laser with longitudinal mode instability. Despite the long history of laser physics, reflectivities …

The first results of an experimental study of a coherent optical frequency-domain
reflectometer (C-OFDR) based on a simple single-frequency fibre laser with frequency self …
