Novel O-band tunable fiber laser using an array waveguide grating

A novel tunable fibre laser (TFL) operating in the ordinary band (O-band0 of 1310nm is proposed and demonstrated. The proposed TFL is developed using a 1x16 arrayed waveguide graitn (AWG) as a slicing mechanism for the broadband amplified spontaneous emission (ASH) source and an optical channel sele...
