Abstract
By shaping the gain curve of a multimode Fabry-Perot (FP) laser with an intracavity Er3+:LiYF4 absorption, singlemode selection with 40 and 36 dB rejection ratios is obtained for absolute emission wavelengths at 1515.4 and 1548.9 nm. The wavelength depends essentially on the internal crystal field at the Er3+ site, whereas other wavelengths are predetermined by combinations with an Er3+-doped YAG crystal
