Efficient single-mode Brillouin fiber laser for low-noise optical carrier reduction of microwave signals
2003
Optics Letters
We experimentally demonstrate efficient optical carrier reduction of microwave signals with a single-mode 1.5-mm wavelength Brillouin all-fiber ring laser. Because of the tunable optical coupling, the lasing threshold of the short-length (20-m) fiber cavity is lower than 5 mW, and high conversion efficiencies (up to 60%) are obtained at any pump power up to ϳ200 mW. Using the single-mode Stokes beam as a seed for the stimulated Brillouin scattering process allows up to 40-dB optical carrier
