Research output: Patent

Abstract

A fiber optic ring laser, and non-transitory computer readable medium for using a fiber optic ring laser are disclosed. The disclosed fiber optic ring laser includes a semiconductor booster optical amplifier (BOA), as a gain medium; a Fiber Fabry Perot Tunable Filter (FFP-TF), as a wavelength selection element; an optical isolator (ISO) to insure unidirectional operation of the fiber optic ring laser; and a polarization controller (PC) for attaining an optimized polarization state in order to achieve a stable-generated output in terms of output power and wavelength, wherein the BOA, the FFP-TF, the ISO and the PC are coupled to form a ring configuration that implements a continuously tunable booster amplifier-based fiber ring laser.
