  • Abstract
    A polarisation scrambling scheme is employed to reduce the pump-polarisation-dependent mean-wavelength change in the Er-doped superfluorescent fibre source for gyroscope application. A PZT-based fibre-optic polarisation modulation is used at the pump port for polarisation scrambling. Changes of mean wavelength owing to pump polarisation variation are suppressed below 1 ppm.
