  • Abstract
    25-mW-output-power Er/Brillouin-oscillator, a conventional dispersion-shifted fiber, and introduced bending losses are the simplest way to realize nanosecond, all-fiber laser sources operating in 900-1800 nm. Expanding evolution of the spectrum kicked off by multi-cascade-Brillouin-random-process is reported.
