This paper demonstrates a four-wave mixing (FWM) effect in the reduced length of Bi-based erbium-doped fiber (Bi-EDF) with both open and ring configurations. The generated FWM signals are used to determine the nonlinear properties of the Bi-EDF based on two CW dual-wavelength measurement methods. Th...
