A multiwavelength Brillouin Erbium fiber laser (MWBEFL) with double brillouin frequency spacing and Q-switching characteristics is demonstrated based on figure-of-eight configuration. The proposed MWBEFL uses a four-port circulator as a double-frequency shifter to isolate and circulate the odd-stoke...
