We report a high power and widely tunable erbium-doped fiber (EDF) ring laser using 1480nm pump and high concentration EDF. Large tuning range up to 105nm (1513-1618 nm) has been obtained by optimizing of the EDF length.
A tunable erbium-doped fiber ring laser employing an all-polarization-maintaining fiber loop filter with certain birefringence is proposed and demonstrated.
