  • Abstract
    Er3+-doped fiber lasers find important applications in WDM telecommunication systems and fiber sensor technology. In this paper, we report an efficient tunable Er3+-doped fiber laser with a narrow linewidth and a broad tunability. The fiber lasers are investigated with different cavity conditions to obtain an optimum lasing operation at the available pump power
