  • Abstract
    A piezo-tuned CW, single-mode, narrow-linewidth distributed feedback, photonic crystal fibre (DFB-PCF) laser was fabricated. To determine its stability, the laser was used to measure the linewidth of the P11 molecular absorption band of acetylene (C2H2) with a resolution of 0.45 pm and a tuning range of 0.22 nm.
