Abstract :
A novel intra-cavity with a broadband spectral response is designed and demonstrated to deliver a 4th order Stokes cascaded Raman generation. A large transmission bandwidth of 295 nm is realized using the two WDM couplers. The results applied to a Raman fiber laser operating at 1706 nm wavelength using a 1313 nm pump source are reported.
