Abstract

A continuous wave (CW) ultra-narrow linewidth single-longitudinal mode (SLM) ytterbium-doped fiber laser (YDFL) based on narrowband fiber Bragg grating (NB-FBG) and double-ring passive subcavity (DR-PS) was studied. The filtering characteristics of the double-ring passive subcavity are analyzed theoretically, and it is used as a high-precision mode filter to eliminate the dense longitudinal mode and mode hopping of YDFL and ensure that the laser operates in the SLM state. Experimental results show that the laser has a central wavelength of 1030.052 nm at room temperature, an optical signal-to-noise ratio of up to 73 dB, and an ultra-narrow linewidth of 355 Hz. In addition, we measured the short-term and long-term stability of the laser, with wavelength and power fluctuations of less than 0.008 nm and 0.19 dB, respectively, over 120 min. As a result, we obtain SLM YDFL with high stability, ultra-narrow linewidth, and a high optical signal-to-noise ratio.
