We report an application of composite cavity fiber laser (CCFL) for hydrophone sensitivity enhancement. While most of the sensitivity enhancement methods rely on amplification of acoustic signal by the coating design, our proposed scheme exploits the inherently nonlinear phase condition of the CCFL....
