An efficient and stable laser action from a double-clad erbium/ytterbium-doped fiber (EYDF) is demonstrated using a fiber Bragg grating at room temperature. The fiber laser operates at wavelength of 1552.3 nm with a slope efficiency of 38% when pumped by multi-mode 915 nm laser diodes. However, the...
