摘要
A compact erbium-doped fibre (EDF) laser is demonstrated which uses a microfibre coupler and a highly concentrated EDF loop. The coupler functions to inject the pump light and tap out the output. The EDF laser operates at 1526.3 nm, with a signal-to-noise ratio of about 26 dB. The maximum output power 20 mu W is obtained at the pump power 18.6 mW. We have obtained the slope efficiencies of the laser 0.12, 0.06, 0.04 and 0.02% at the EDF lengths fixed at 90, 78, 66 and 51 cm, respectively. The lowest lasing-pump power threshold is achieved at 3.8 mW.
