This work demonstrates a simple dual-wavelength random distributed feedback fiber laser via excitation of the Raman-erbium hybrid gain by a single pump source. Lasing wavelengths at 1568 nm and 1595 nm with 48.48 dBm maximum OSNR were generated without the need for physical reflectors. Enhancements...
