Abstract

The invention provides a tunable laser based on dual interference of a dual-core optical fiber and a Sagnac ring. Tuning of a wavelength range, change of the number of wavelengths and change of wavelength intervals can be achieved at the same time. In the optical fiber laser, a polarization controller I and a polarization maintaining optical fiber are connected between two ports of an optical fiber coupler I to form a Sagnac optical fiber filter, so that wavelength tuning in a gain range is realized. The wavelength interval can be changed by adjusting the optical fiber stress frame of the double-core optical fiber Mach-Zehnder filter. By using the optical fiber with a high nonlinear coefficient, a four-wave mixing effect can be formed, wavelength competition is inhibited, and stable wavelength output is facilitated. Meanwhile, the change of the number of wavelengths can be realized by changing the pumping power. The laser is simple in structure, flexible in output wavelength and beneficial to application in optical communication and optical wavelength division multiplexing systems.
