Abstract
A single-frequency Tm-doped fiber laser operating at 2050 nm is demonstrated with a ring cavity scheme. A piece of unpumped Tm/Ho-coped fiber saturable absorber incorporating a high reflectivity fiber Bragg grating, which serves as a narrow bandwidth filter, were inserted inside the cavity to select single longitudinal mode and suppress the mode hopping. By optimizing the length of Tm/Ho-codoped fiber, stable single-frequency lasing at 2050 nm was realized. Under 2 W 1570 nm pump power, 215 mW single-frequency output power was obtained, while the slope efficiency with respect to the launched pump power was 22%. This work shows that using Tm/Ho-codoped fiber or Ho-doped fiber as the saturable absorber, which has a higher absorption above 2 μm, could enhance the mode selection capability thus improve the singlefrequency output power.
