Abstract:
Two novel external cavity lasers are demonstrated experimentally. The first
utilises a Bragg grating fabricated in highly birefringent optical fibre and
offers the ability to switch between modes that are separated in polarisation
and wavelength. The second utilises two spatially separate Bragg gratings
fabricated in mono-mode fibre. Both can be used for tunable beat frequency
generation.
